Daily Digest: Senegal v Morocco, Dembélé, NBA and Dro Fernandez | OneFootball

This Sunday, January 18, the French press (on the sports aspect) focused on the Paris Saint-Germain side with Ousmane Dembélé's (28-year-old forward) masterful lob against Lille on Friday, the project of an NBA subsidiary, the recruitment of Dro Fernandez (18-year-old midfielder from FC Barcelona) and the CAN final between Senegal and Morocco tonight (at 8 PM) which will pit Ibrahim Mbaye (17-year-old forward) against Achraf Hakimi (27-year-old right-back).

Le Parisien –

L’Equipe –

The CAN ends tonight, with a very exciting match that will surely captivate both countries, as well as Senegalese and Moroccans living abroad. Including in France, where PSG also has a player from each nation. It's impossible to have a preference; we mainly hope for a great match and no injuries.

Hakimi could finally play for PSG again soon, which is an important asset. But Mbaye will also be beneficial, as the squad is not very large. Even though there will be fewer matches, we also know that the year is physically challenging because there was no room for summer preparation. With the World Cup at the end, this season is a real challenge.

Rediscovering Dembélé's genius is very refreshing, hoping he can continue. And that his teammates will take advantage of this to regain more confidence in finishing, and thus efficiency. There should also be the signing of Dro Fernandez to slightly expand the squad.

Alongside all this, there is ongoing work with the NBA. This could be a major development axis for the club, but the right formula needs to be found.
