Rayan Cherki misses his signing at PSG, next dispute in Manchester

Rayan Cherki nearly signed with Paris Saint-Germain in 2024 but the deal ultimately did not go through. The player is now a key element of Manchester City and will face his former club on Wednesday in the Champions League.

Manchester City, undefeated this season, is currently playing without any injury or fitness issues. Phil Foden can also return after his suspension. In contrast, PSG has not won any of its three opening league matches and sits in sixth place in Ligue 1.

Match Context

Manchester City faces Paris Saint-Germain for the first time since their meeting during the group stage of last season. The Citizens recently beat Liverpool at Anfield, solidifying their position as Premier League leaders after six unbeaten games.

Team Performances

Manchester City has won eight consecutive matches across all competitions this season. Their attack is led by Erling Haaland, who has scored eight goals in as many matches.

Paris Saint-Germain remains unbeaten in the last 11 encounters with English clubs but has not won any of its four previous visits to Manchester City.
