PSG vs. Tottenham: Key players to watch
Ousmane Dembélé, PSG’s star striker, was the club’s top scorer for the 2024/25 season. Back in December 2018, playing for Barcelona, he earned UEFA's ‘Goal of the Week’ award for a stunning solo effort against Tottenham in the UCL group stages.
On the Tottenham side, Brennan Johnson was a standout in the Europa League last season, scoring five goals, including the unforgettable match-winner in the Bilbao final.
With the Premier League side set to be without Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison, and Dominic Solanke among others, Spurs would need new arrival Mohammed Kudus to step up, though he is yet to realise a major feat at Tottenham.
