Twenty-year-old striker Mathys Tel is preparing to face Paris Saint-Germain in the first competitive match of the season. Speaking to Canal+, he emphasized the importance of this match to kick off his season with a title, despite the Parisian team’s youth.
Tel: “PSG is one of the reasons we’re working hard”
“PSG is one of the reasons we’re working hard. Beyond the fact that we’re about to have a great season, this will be our first competitive match. Even though friendlies are planned, they must be taken seriously.
This is an opportunity for us to start with a title and kick off the season in the best possible way. For me, any team is beatable. We’ll try to work hard, learn from our opponents, and be ready to face them.”
For Mathys Tel, kicking off his season at Tottenham with a final against PSG is a crucial opportunity. This match allows the young striker to establish himself immediately as he joins an ambitious new club. Against the European champions, Tel wants to demonstrate his worth and build a positive dynamic, essential for integrating and gaining the trust of his teammates and the coaching staff. A win against Paris would have an immediate impact, decisive for his status and the team’s confidence.
This match sets the tone for his season and places Tel in the spotlight from the start, in a match that will test his maturity and ability to respond in major matches. For Paris, this start to the season promises to be a difficult one; there has been little preseason work done, and the team may still be a little underdeveloped for this type of match.
