Lilac restarts from its certainties. Having lost Soumaré, heading for Leicester, and Maignan, who moved to Milan, the team showed that they had not lost their way by overtaking their Parisian opponents in the Super Cup. New coach Gourvennec has taken over the squad and will rely on Burak Yilmaz’s goals, Yazici’s talent and Xeka’s unpredictability. He will not stand by and watch Pochettino’s PSG: 76 million spent on the market with the purchase of Hakimi from Inter (60) and Danilo Pereira from Porto (16). Then the engagements of the luxury freelancers Donnarumma, Sergio Ramos and Wijnaldum. Kovac’s Monaco also wants to have its say, committed to earning a place in the next Champions League by overcoming the preliminaries. Ben Yedder and Volland the fixed points, now there is Nubel in goal: arrived on loan from Bayern Munich.
