Argentine legend Sergio Aguero believes that Paris Saint-Germain have a great chance of winning this season’s Champions League because of Lionel Messi and their other superstars. The former Manchester City star also added that the presence of the World Cup makes this season’s tournament much harder.
With Paris Saint-Germain undergoing a revolution of some sort this summer, it has seen the club completely transform their squad while allowing underperforming stars to leave. That saw the likes of Georgino Wijnaldum, Thilo Kehrer, Abou Diallo, Angel Di Maria, and co all depart for various clubs across Europe. However, at the same time, it has allowed the likes of Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Kylian Mbappe to undergo a proper pre-season which has helped the squad.
