This Saturday, as Paris Saint-Germain hosts Auxerre at the Parc des Princes (kick-off at 9:05 PM, CET) for matchday 6 of the 2025-2026 Ligue 1 season, the club has a special occasion to celebrate: the birthday of midfielder João Neves, who turns 21 today.
Arriving during the 2024 summer transfer window, Neves quickly established himself as a key player in the capital and won over the fans. Always ready to give his all on the pitch, both defensively and offensively, the Portuguese midfielder has rapidly proven that he belongs among the best. This has silenced any doubters who questioned his signing from Benfica.
He has added some important and particularly spectacular goals, further boosting his popularity. We can only be delighted to have the 19th-ranked player in the 2025 Ballon d’Or rankings at PSG, even if we hoped for an even higher position. In any case, we wish him a very happy birthday!
