Thomas Meunier, end of contract with Paris Saint-Germain, recently signed a four-year contract with Borussia Dortmund. Earlier, he had refused a short contract extension from the Parisians in order not to deter interested clubs. As a result, he seemed to miss the final phase of the Champions League, but his new employer is very flexible.
He can play for Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League this season, CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke confirmed to TV channel Sport1. “We told him that too. If he still wants to play in the Champions League, that will be fine for us. Then we will discuss the details. He is still thinking about it,” said Watzke, who played Dortmund in the eighth this season. Champions League finals were eliminated by PSG.
Due to the corona pandemic, the concept has been adjusted and a Final 8 will be played in Lisbon in August. If Meunier opts for the champion ball, he threatens to disrupt his season preparation at Dortmund. “He has had such a long break now that he no longer feels like going on holiday. He is rested and could join us after the CL.”
