PSG – Dro reveals his ambition for this season | OneFootball

Dro Fernandez, the 18-year-old Paris Saint-Germain midfielder, said a few words to L’Équipe after Saturday’s 1-1 friendly draw against Manchester United. He came across as positive and determined for the season ahead.

Indeed, the match against Manchester United was more interesting than the one against Mallorca. That makes sense, as the rhythm is gradually coming back for those who have been there since the start of pre-season and had long vacations. Other players are also returning little by little to strengthen the squad, even if patience will be needed at the start of the season.

It is precisely an opportunity for Dro to show what he can do. And he did that well on Saturday, notably with his assist for Ibrahim Mbaye (an 18-year-old forward). Since arriving last January, he has been able to adapt, take on coach Luis Enrique’s philosophy, and work on his physical condition. That is an essential point, even if power is not everything. You also have to be able to hold your own in duels in order to make the most of his superb technical quality and vision of the game.

Dro is still young and has time to grow. But he also has the desire to play as much as possible despite extremely tough competition. He has to know how to be patient and never give up, because he will have opportunities. He is also particularly well surrounded, and that very positive aspect of competing at such a high level should not be forgotten. In any case, we will be keeping a close eye on his progress this season, hoping to see him establish himself.
