Paris Saint-Germain is currently playing against Chateauroux in the Coupe de France, the second most important tournament in France. Christophe Galtier had to put a starting eleven full of rotations, starting with Keylor Navas who, despite his great hierarchy in goal, the reality is that he is nothing more than a substitute at PSG.

In addition to the Costa Rican, Christophe Galtier chose to give a chance to one of the most promising jewels of the Parisian team: El Bitshiabu, with just 17 years of age. The defender is having his first litmus test. With the absences of Mbappé, Neymar and Messi, the pressure of the goals falls on the shoulders of one player: Hugo Ekitike.
