Zapping Our Mondial CAN 2021: The strengths and weaknesses of Mali seen by Cédric Kanté for Onze Mondial
Paris Saint-Germain continues to expand. Indeed, the capital club has just announced in a press release the opening of an academy, the 15th in the world, in Wales. The latter will be based in Caerphilly, near Cardiff, within the local school St Martin. “In the medium term, the club wants to open new academies in 4 key regions across the country. Buoyed by the recent performances of the national team, the Welsh passion for football is at its peak. The opening of this new academy highlights the new dimension of the Parisian club, which has won the hearts of many young supporters around the world”, can we read in the press release addressed to the media.
“Wales, Football, PSG Academy, in that order”
But above all, the leaders took the opportunity to gently troll Real Madrid on one of the thorns in the foot of Carlo Ancelotti, named Gareth Bale. Indeed, the title of the press release is: “Wales, Football, PSG Academy, in that order”, something to recall the controversial photo of the Welshman who, after a match with his selection, had approached a flocked flag of his country: “Wales , Golf, Madrid”. Less than a month before the Champions League clash between the two teams, we can see it as a way to launch hostilities.
