On the eve of their opening match of the Club World Cup, PSG and Atlético Madrid trained in a fairly light way, each of them obviously, and the day's session under the California sun was an opportunity to see which players were going to be able to evolve on Sunday evening (9 p.m. in France but 12 noon local time …) at Rose Bowl de Pasadena. On the Parisian side, nothing new in the background with the expected absence which is confirmed.
The Dembélé package for PSG/Atlético is confirmed
Again, Ousmane Dembelé trained away this Saturday and it is logically forfeited for the PSG/Atlético meeting on Sunday.
