PSG is no longer very far from what it has been looking for for years. Stunning against FC Barcelona in the previous round, Paris Saint-Germain will face Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League semi-final. While the first leg will take place in Germany this Wednesday, the two teams will engage in a new battle six days later under the gaze of the Eiffel Tower. By facing the Ruhr club at this stage of the competition, Luis Enrique’s men know that they have every chance of reaching a new C1 final. For some observers, this data should allow the capital club to win its first title in the competition. This is particularly the case of Jean-Michel Aulas. The former president of OL, now deputy vice-president of the FFF, affirmed that he thinks this is a good year for PSG ahead of the D1 Arkema trophy ceremony:
“Is it a good year for Paris? Yes, I think so, trying to think about the motivations. Certainly, Kylian (Mbappé) will leave. But who more than him wants to win it with his club which has welcomed him for years? There are very good players, including one who comes from Lyon who is very strong at the moment (Bradley Barcola, editor’s note), and a dynamic of victories, a very important offensive dynamic. And a coach (Luis Enrique) whom I have personally appreciated for years, who gives this Paris Saint-Germain a new ambition. I honestly think it’s a good year. I saw a rival which was Manchester City, who remained on the floor against Madrid. There you have it, these are the reasons that lead me to think that it is possible. And if I have the opportunity to do it, I will go to Dortmund and in the final at Wembley to see how things can go» There is no doubt that he will also be present on May 25 in Lille for the Coupe de France final between Lyon, his favorite club, and PSG.
