This Sunday, Paris Saint-Germain will face Chelsea at the MetLife Stadium in New York in the 2025 Club World Cup final (kick-off at 9 p.m CET., broadcast on DAZN and TF1). With two days to go before the match, RMC Sport has put forward a likely Parisian team.
Kvaratskhelia – Dembélé – Doué
Ruiz – Vitinha – Neves
Mendes – Beraldo – Marquinhos – Hakimi
Donnarumma
This team has largely beaten Real Madrid, as well as other European powerhouses before (with Willian Pacho, suspended this time, rather than Lucas Beraldo). So it makes sense for them to continue. Even though this isn’t an official announcement, the sports media is taking few risks here.
Unless there’s a case of extreme fatigue, no real changes are expected. And the team was able to manage, with some fairly early substitutions, against Real Madrid. The latest suspense seems to mainly concern the right wing position, with Bradley Barcola likely to start instead of Désiré Doué. But that would be a minor surprise.
