PSG vs Tottenham form
PSG almost had a perfect season if it weren't for the unexpected stumble in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup final.
Before entering the tournament in the land of the stars and stripes, the team under coach Luis Enrique played very well, surpassing a series of big names to win the Champions League for the first time.
After the historic treble (Ligue 1, Coupe de France, Champions League), PSG continues to have the opportunity to reach the top of the world when they successively left behind Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid with their destructive performance.
When everyone thought the journey was complete for the Paris giants, they suddenly stumbled when they suffered an unbelievable 0-3 defeat against Chelsea in the gold cup match.
Having missed the opportunity in the US, PSG is still looking forward to the new season with high confidence. The team has just said goodbye to Milan Skriniar (to Fenerbahce for 7 million euros), a central defender who was also no longer in the personnel plan since last season.
In the opposite direction, the team at the Parc des Princes spent nearly a hundred million euros to bring in two new players, central defender Illya Zabarnyi and goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier, who will likely be given the starting position in the context of veteran Gianluigi Donnarumma preparing to leave.
Due to being busy participating in the FIFA Club World Cup, PSG did not have time for tours or friendlies.
Instead, coach Luis Enrique and his players were allowed to rest for 3 weeks and only gathered at the beginning of the month. The European Super Cup match against Tottenham will be the opening of the new season for Ousmane Dembele and his teammates.
This weekend, PSG will also begin their journey to defend their Ligue 1 title with a trip to Nantes.
Having gone through many quality matches in the tournament organized by FIFA, coach Luis Enrique and his team are certainly ready to conquer new challenges.
On the other side of the front line, Tottenham has had a big change in personnel this summer. Despite helping Spurs end a 17-year trophyless streak with the Europa League, coach Ange Postecoglou was still sacked to make way for Thomas Frank.
The player force also had significant fluctuations when prominent faces such as Son Heung-min, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Sergio Reguilón, Fraser Forster all left to make way for new faces.
The most prominent of these is Mohammed Kudus, a new recruit who joined from West Ham for a fee of 55 million pounds.
Neither PSG nor Tottenham have ever won the European Super Cup. However, while Spurs are enjoying their first taste of the competition between the two top European champions, PSG have been in the competition once, in the 1996/97 season, when they lost 9-3 to Juventus over two legs.
