Ligue 1 – L’Equipe’s 2025 team of the year revealed, PSG dominate | OneFootball

At the end of the year, there are often all-star teams for the first half of the current season. But also for the calendar year. This is what L’Equipe offers this Saturday regarding Ligue 1, with a best eleven for 2025. 9 players from Paris Saint-Germain are included: Achraf Hakimi, Marquinhos, Nuno Mendes, Vitinha, João Neves, Fabian Ruiz, Ousmane Dembélé, and Désiré Doué. We can almost add Gianluigi Donnarumma (who left this summer for Manchester City). Mason Greenwood (Olympique de Marseille) is the only one from another French club.

We won't delve into the debate for each chosen player, as it can be endless since everyone can have their own perspective in football and their criteria for such an all-star team. However, it seemed difficult to exclude a very present PSG given how impressive they have been in Ligue 1.

They are not first at the start of this season, but they are close to Lens despite a lack of physical preparation and while maintaining their position in the top 8 in the Champions League for now. It is a real achievement. Above all, Paris has a style of play and quality within it that leaves a mark. This is with players who are establishing themselves among the best in the world.

Of course, the victory in the Champions League may have also influenced the choices, even if it should only be about Ligue 1 here. Thus, we find a relatively "average" Donnarumma in Ligue 1 last season, while several goalkeepers shone (including Lucas Chevalier or Geronimo Rulli).
