🔥Super Cup decider tomorrow: Emery and Luis Enrique ramp up build-up

Paris Saint-Germain and Aston Villa are set to face off in the UEFA Super Cup final on Wednesday, August 12, at Salzburg’s Red Bull Arena in Austria as the European season kicks off. The high-stakes match features two-time Champions League winners Paris Saint-Germain against the English side Aston Villa.

Luis Enrique, the coach of Paris Saint-Germain, emphasized the squad's ambition of winning a third consecutive European Cup, matching Real Madrid’s historic record. This could be a significant opportunity for Lucas Digne, who may make his debut against his former team Real Madrid.

Aston Villa manager Unai Emery, on the other hand, acknowledged the French side's favoritism and described Luis Enrique as "the best coach in the world." Emery will field a team missing key players such as Emiliano "Dibu" Martínez, Ollie Watkins, and Ezri Konsa, who are resting following their World Cup participation.
