Quentin Ndjantou, the 17-year-old midfielder/forward for Paris Saint-Germain, spoke to Canal+ after the 5-3 victory against Tottenham this Wednesday at the Parc des Princes in Matchday 5 of the 2025-2026 Champions League.
Ndjantou: “I was eager to start this match.”
Were you surprised to learn that you were going to start this match?
I wasn’t surprised, but I was especially eager to start this match. It shows that the coach sees my efforts in training, and I’m definitely very happy to have started this match. On the pitch, I tried to repay the confidence that the coach gives me.
Ndjantou: “It’s nothing new.”
Was it a surprise how you’re positioned as a striker?
I’ve always played in this position; it’s where I started playing football. It’s nothing new, and I’m back in this position today. I’m very happy; I’m versatile, and the coach uses that to get the team playing well.
