Paris Saint-Germain appear to have one eye on the Champions League final against Arsenal after footage emerged of their goalkeepers going through a physical workout this morning.
A video posted by RMC Sport showed a training ground exercise that involved the ball being thrown into the area and the goalkeepers taking it in turns to be pushed and barged by colleagues wearing pads over their arms.
Regular number one Matvey Safonov and his deputy Lucas Chevalier were involved.
PSG and Arsenal ready for Champions League final clash
PSG face the Gunners in Budapest on May 30 by which time it is highly likely they will be champions of their respective countries.
PSG have already wrapped up the Ligue 1 crown while Arsenal’s win at West Ham on Sunday gave them one hand on the trophy with their remaining fixtures against a Burnley side that have long-been relegated and Crystal Palace, who will have one eye on the Conference League final.
Arsenal’s victory at the London Stadium was not without controversy, however, with the Hammers denied a late equaliser when VAR ruled Pablo had fouled goalkeeper David Raya at a corner with Callum Wilson’s subsequent finish ruled out.
Cynics pointed out it was the kind of effort that Arsenal have scored on many occasions this season – they lead the Premier League with 21 goals from set-pieces – with Arsenal’s proficiency in that area providing a useful weapon for Mikel Arteta’s men.
West Ham are set to contact Professional Game Match Officials Limited to outline their disappointment, particularly as it put a major dent in their bid to avoid relegation.
PSG visit Lens in Ligue 1 tomorrow night.
