PSG will kick off their European campaign by hosting Dortmund at Parc des Princes.

“You have to have ambition, but obsession doesn’t work, and that’s applicable in all aspects of life.
“We aim to play well and provide joy to our supporters, but there is no obsession.”
In recent years, PSG has faced repeated disappointments in the Champions League despite high hopes.
However, this season, with the departures of Lionel Messi and Neymar over the summer, Luis Enrique’s squad looks significantly different from previous iterations that experienced challenging exits in the competition.
PSG will host Dortmund at Parc des Princes on Tuesday night and then face Marseille in Ligue 1 on Sunday.
