PSG v Chelsea: Rosenior says his players are buzzing!

Liam Rosenior, Chelsea's coach, was invited by the press after the match against Wrexham (FA Cup) to discuss the Champions League round of 16 for the 2025-2026 season against Paris Saint-Germain (first leg this Wednesday, March 11, return leg on the 17th). He expressed his players' excitement to face Paris.

“I think the Champions League draw was very fair, and I like that. Facing PSG in the next round was not a surprise... the boys were all smiles when they learned that Chelsea would play against PSG.”, remarks relayed by Foot Mercato.

Of course, one might imagine that getting PSG as an opponent after being in the top 8 of the league phase is not the best possible outcome. There are opponents who seem more manageable, even though the trend is to claim that the Parisians are heading for disaster.

But Chelsea is not going to complain; it's a very high-level competition. The competition is fierce and there is no time to complain when you want to move forward. Paris is also a very beautiful challenge, and we suspect that the Blues will be motivated. There is also the desire to confirm the 3-0 victory during the Club World Cup, while PSG will want to prove that it was an incident mainly due to fatigue.
