PSG press round-up: Barcola up front, Lee steps up | OneFootball

This Monday, March 2, the French press (on the sports aspect) focused on Paris Saint-Germain's good performance by Bradley Barcola (23-year-old forward) as a number 9 against Le Havre on Saturday, as well as the rise in prominence (and importance?) of Lee Kang-In (25-year-old midfielder/forward).

L’Equipe –

It's undeniable, Barcola was impressive as a number 9 against Le Havre on Saturday. It's an option that can be tried again for other matches. Moreover, it wasn't the first time, and there had already been encouraging signs. However, as often happens, the media gets carried away. Barcola needs to be seen as a number 9 over several matches, and against different types of opponents, to confirm (or not) that it's a real idea for the highest level. It's possible, but there's still a lot to do.

As for Lee, it's beneficial for him to be able to play consecutive matches without injury. He has adapted well to the game and manages to be a real asset in different positions. Can he become a starter in the upcoming major events? It's not impossible in this PSG where several players seem fatigued. He needs to keep fighting and seize the opportunities.
