Paris Saint-Germain stars choose the captain of the team for the new season
French media reports revealed that the players of the French club Paris Saint-Germain chose the team captain for the new football season 2023-2024, after conducting a secret voting process approved by the current coach, Spanish Luis Enrique.
And according to the French “RMC Sport” radio website, on Tuesday, the stars of the Parisian club chose Brazilian defender Marquinhos to carry the team’s captaincy for another season, after he was captain of the French capital’s squad last season.
The same source added that Marquinhos carried the armband during the last confrontation against Toulouse, last Saturday, which caused a state of tension in the dressing rooms, after he was chosen as captain of the Paris Saint-Germain squad without conducting the voting process.
Marquinhos, who regained the captaincy after the departure of his compatriot Thiago Silva to English club Chelsea in the summer of 2020, is considered the second largest player in Paris Saint-Germain, behind the Italian midfielder Marco Verratti, and has played more than 400 matches in the Parisian club shirt since joining the team in 2013. .
Enrique left the decision to choose the new captain of the team to the players who voted for Marquinhos again, knowing that the 29-year-old defender carried the armband under the leadership of previous coaches, German Thomas Tuchel, then Argentine Mauricio Pochettino, and also with French Christophe Galtier.
According to the information mentioned by the source, the French star Kylian Mbappe will be one of the three deputies of Marquinhos, as the former Spanish national team coach wants to have a sequential arrangement of four leaders in the current football season.
