Established on Saturday evening during PSG-Clermont (1-1), Milan Skriniar again performed poorly. The exit door seems to be the best path for the Slovak central defender.
What happened ? Presented by some media as a rock, capable of finally giving consistency and authority to the defense of Paris Saint-Germain, one of the shortcomings which prevented the Qatar club from shining in the Champions League, Milan Skriniar quite the opposite is revealed. Since his arrival in Paris in July 2023, the Slovak colossus has never collected good points, on the contrary. He became an easy target for mockery.
Starting Saturday evening during PSG-Clermont football (1-1 – 28th day of Ligue 1), then replaced by Marquinhos in the 67th minute, Milan Skriniar found himself at the origin of the opponent's opening score signed by the Former OL midfielder, Habib Keita (32nd). An additional mediocre performance in the necessarily negative Parisian record of the 29-year-old player. We have the impression that the man with 66 caps for Slovakia belongs to another time. That of the 1950s when defenders had chased the words technique and speed from their vocabulary.
Who wants Skriniar?
The immense excitement he gives off with the ball at his feet increases the risk of a ball at every moment. Luis Enrique, the PSG coach, obviously noticed this but he obviously had no other choice on Saturday evening against Clermont than to start Milan Skriniar. All Parisian senior players have been preserved in view of the quarter-final first leg of the Champions League, Wednesday evening against FC Barcelona. Pereira-Skriniar was therefore the only hinge available in the eyes of Enrique in the eleven B aligned.
We also wonder how Milan Skriniar was able to wear the armband of Inter where he played for six seasons (2017-2023). Before he suffered from back problems, Skriniar always had the confidence of the coaches of the nerazzurro bench (246 matches with Inter including 31 in the Champions League). Today, with such a low level, there is not much future for Milan Skriniar at PSG, who is under contract until June 30… 2028. Which club will want such a player? This is also the question on which the Parisian managers and the player's agent must work.
