Two stars on the shirt
UEFA has officially authorized PSG to wear two stars on their jersey after winning a second consecutive Champions League title (6). This is the kind of detail that makes it real. You will see those two stars above the crest next season – a permanent mark of what this team has built under Luis Enrique. No other French club has one star, let alone two.
Hands off Neves and Vitinha
PSG have drawn a hard line: Vitinha and João Neves are not for sale (5). Reports of a €150m approach from Florentino Pérez and Real Madrid have been met with a firm no – the club considers both midfielders untouchable (2) (5). The pair have already joined up with Portugal's national team after their second European triumph (1), and Matheus Nunes is also back in training with the Seleção, recovered ahead of their test against Nigeria (3).
Deschamps singles out Doué
Didier Deschamps has publicly praised Désiré Doué as France gears up for the 2026 World Cup (4). The forward has clearly caught the national team coach's eye after his role in PSG's European campaign. Deschamps spoke on Monday about Doué's qualities ahead of France's group stage matches against Senegal, Iraq, Norway, Ivory Coast, and Northern Ireland (4).
Club World Cup: Chelsea 3–0 PSG
This one stung. Cole Palmer scored twice and set up a third as Chelsea swept PSG aside in the Club World Cup final (8). It was a rare off-day for a side that has made a habit of winning the biggest games. Lamine Yamal later weighed in with comments about Palmer's performance (8). Not the trophy you wanted, but it does nothing to dim what this team achieved in Budapest.
Quick hit: England 1–0 New Zealand
Four Arsenal players – Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka, Eberechi Eze, and Noni Madueke – joined England after losing the Champions League final to PSG (7). England went on to beat New Zealand 1–0 on Saturday, with Harry Kane getting the goal (7). A footnote, but it underlines how deep the Arsenal contingent runs in that England setup.
Fan reactions
The two-star announcement has fans buzzing, but the midfield protectionism is the real talking point. Supporters are fiercely backing the club's stance on Neves and Vitinha – the consensus is clear: you don't sell the engine room of a double European champion. One thread put it bluntly: the parade confetti is barely swept and the vultures are already circling. Read more on Reddit
