Press review: PSG v Lens, a chance for the understudies to shine | OneFootball

This Sunday, September 14, the French press (on the sports side) focused on Paris Saint-Germain's hosting of Lens at 5:15 pm as part of the 4th day of Ligue 1 2025-2026 (broadcast on beIN SPORTS). A special match, coming out of the international break and before a significant week (start of the Champions League on Wednesday against Atalanta and a trip to Marseille next Sunday), to manage well as Désiré Doué and Ousmane Dembélé will be absent for several weeks.

L’Equipe –

The resumption can be a bit special, it is necessary to get back into the rhythm of the club, with its philosophy of play. This without thinking too much about the so tempting Champions League, even if it is necessarily taken into account in the management of the players. There will be nothing easy against Lens, especially without the detonators Doué and Dembélé.

But it is also an opportunity for the usual backups to show themselves more. Gonçalo Ramos (24-year-old scorer) and Lee Kang-In (24-year-old midfielder/forward) have qualities to show and playing time to win. This could be a turning point in their Parisian adventure. We can also think of the young Warren Zaïre-Emery (19-year-old midfielder) and Senny Mayulu (19-year-old offensive midfielder), who should be able to assert themselves.
