While Paris Saint-Germain are in the midst of a period of celebration, there’s some bad news on the women’s front this Monday. Benjamin Quarez, a journalist with Le Parisien, has announced the departure of 21-year-old striker Korbin Albert to Olympique Lyonnais.
It’s a major blow for the Parisians, with a talented striker joining Lyon. It’s an all-too-familiar scenario for PSG, who attract interesting players only to see them join the club they’re trying to join. This makes it difficult to grow and establish themselves as strong rivals over the long term.
We’ll have to find solutions that will give us a more stable project and enable us to better maintain our backbone. This will involve both management and staff. Let’s hope that this summer will finally be the turning point we’ve been waiting for, after seasons marked by stagnation. Or even regression. It will have to be a particularly well-managed summer.
