Introducing its new 5 stars in this season at the same time. A super lively welcome from the fans was also present at the Parc des Princes.
PSG introduced five new players ahead of the match against Strasbourg on Sunday (15/8/2021) early morning WIB. Although the French League has entered its second week, this match will be the first home game of the season.
Therefore, the five players have just been introduced together. In front of almost 47,000 spectators, Achraf Hakimi, Georginio Wijnaldum, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Sergio Ramos, and Lionel Messi were called into the field one by one.
Especially Messi, he came in last, and the reception for him was very lively. Naturally, considering his status as the holder of 6 Ballon d'Or, the most compared to anyone.
In that match, PSG finally beat Strasbourg 4-2. Messi, Ramos and Donnarumma are still missing. Only Hakimi and Wijnaldum have played.
PSG made an ambitious transfer this summer. Except for Hakimi, the other four players were indeed recruited for free, but all of them have huge salaries that are not kidding. Messi alone is paid 35 million Euros per season.
Even so, it is believed that PSG will not be ensnared by Financial Fair Play rules. This is because the rules are being relaxed by UEFA in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, thus giving Les Parisiens an advantage to strengthen the team.
