Nantes v PSG: Paris line-up, Zabarnyi, Ramos and doubts | OneFootball

This Saturday, during the first day of Ligue 1 2025-2026, Paris Saint-Germain faces Nantes at the Stade de la Beaujoire (kick-off at 8:45 PM, broadcast on Ligue1+). On the eve of this match, the press has tried to guess the team that Parisian coach Luis Enrique will field.

Le Parisien (4-3-3) –

Barcola – Ramos – Mbaye

Doué – Vitinha – Lee

Beraldo – Pacho – Zabarnyi – Zaïre-Emery

Chevalier

L’Equipe (4-3-3) –

Mbaye – Ramos – Doué

Ruiz – Vitinha – Zaïre-Emery

Hernandez – Pacho – Zabarnyi – Hakimi

Chevalier.

Given the absentees, each lineup is possible. But we must remain cautious, as coach Luis Enrique knows how to surprise the media, the opponent, and the fans. He has established fierce competition based on matches and training sessions. There is also physical management with elements not at our disposal. Not to mention analyzing the opposing team and the famous spaces to exploit.

We will wait for certainties, especially for Ilya Zabarnyi. The 22-year-old defender has the advantage of having completed a full preparation, but he is not yet perfectly adapted to the game, and it is not easy to "take out" one of the starters. He will still need playing time to progress. We expect at least a substitution appearance.

On the offensive side, one might wonder if Gonçalo Ramos (24-year-old striker) and Lee Kang-In (24-year-old midfielder/forward) could play more this time after impressive performances on Wednesday in the European Super Cup against Tottenham. Starting them would make sense. Seeing Doué on the right and Mbaye on the left makes a bit less sense, as it was the opposite when they played together on Wednesday.
