The wing-back signed for PSG from Inter Millan after helping the Nerazzurri lift the Serie A title last season.

The former Real Madrid player assisted one goal despite the fact that PSG was far from strong as most of their first team members are still on holiday having played in the just concluded UEFA EURO 2020 including Midfielder Marco Veratti who played in the finals.

However, other first-team members who are available were included in the match including, Mauro Icardi, Julian Draxler, Thilo Kehrer, Idrissa Gueye, and Abdou Diallo.

The other new signings Sergio Ramos and goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma will have to wait for their first start. Ramos just arrived in Paris and was not yet ready to be included in the first pre-season match whilst Donnarumma is not yet to complete his move although both the club and the Italian goalkeeper who was awarded the player of the tournament in the Euro 2020 have confirmed the transfer.

PSG’s next match will be another friendly match set to be played on July 17, against Chambly Oise that could see former Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos make his debut.
