This Thursday evening, the annual election of the Paris Saint-Germain team captains, which has been held every season since coach Luis Enrique’s arrival in 2023, took place. RMC Sport revealed the results, including the names of the captain and the three vice-captains.
“Marquinhos remains the clear favorite. The Brazilian defender has been named captain of PSG for the upcoming season following a vote held among the players in the Parisian club’s locker room. All the players were asked to vote for the captain, and Marquinhos emerged as the winner.
For this season, he finished ahead of Achraf Hakimi (2nd place), Vitinha (3rd place), and Ousmane Dembélé (4th place).”
It would be surprising if the media outlet got the result wrong; this is a very specific topic, and the four players involved make perfect sense given their experience and character as leaders on the pitch. Marquinhos retains the top spot once again, a good reminder of his importance to the team. At 31 years old, some are speculating about his imminent departure. But he could still have many more good years ahead of him.
As for Achraf Hakimi, Vitinha, and Ousmane Dembélé, they continue to be pillars of the squad, both in terms of their on-field performance and their attitude.”
