Even though he only arrived at PSG this summer, Willian Pacho has already established himself as a leader of the capital club. The Colombian impresses in each of his outings and this earns him, among other things, the praise of his trainer. At a press conference, Luis Enrique affirmed that the French champion had got his hands on a “very high level” player with the 23-year-old central defender.
This summer, PSG needed to strengthen in central defense, with the long-term absences of Lucas Hernandez and of Presnel Kimpembe. Luis Campos therefore surveyed the market and, after having tried for a while to bring in Leny Yorothe Parisian football advisor fell back on Willian Pacho.
Pacho impresses everyone
Compared to Leny Yoro, Willian Pacho was almost a complete stranger in France. The Colombian belonged to Frankfurtwith whom he played only one season, before arriving at PSG for €40 million. A profitable choice from the Parisian management, because the 23-year-old player has impressed since his arrival at Paris. He quickly established himself within the defense of the capital club, alongside Marquinhos.
Luis Enrique is a fan of Pacho
Facing the RC Lens this Saturday, Willian Pacho again returned a very clean copy. Present at a press conference, Luis Enrique also showed himself to be dysthyrambic towards his defender. According to the coach of PSGthe capital club got their hands on a player from “very high level”. His words are reported by The Parisian. “We found a very high level central defender in Pacho. It is perfect for the idea of the game that we have, playing high, leaving spaces in the back. He finds space with the ball, he doesn't commit fouls and doesn't collect warnings. He has room for improvement, obviously. This is what we had planned. Its adaptation is faster than we expected. »
