Former Paris Saint-Germain player (2020-2022), Rafinha (32 years old) spoke on the “ Charla Podcast ” about his time with the capital club. An adventure he will not forget since the Brazilian shared the locker room with a galaxy of stars: Lionel Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappé. And according to the former FC Barcelona player, it was obvious that the Parisian team was not going to achieve any major success.
“ During preseason, in the first training session where everyone was present, I said, ‘This can’t possibly work.’ Let’s start with the goalkeeper: Keylor Navas or Donnarumma. Whoever doesn’t play will be furious. There will be arguments, discussions with the coach. In defense: Marquinhos, the starter, no one will replace him, Kimpembe, PSG idol, and Sergio Ramos. The three best full-backs for each. In attack, Di María, Mbappé, Neymar, and Messi. Who do you take off? Di María, for his weight within the team, and even then, he’s not a player you can take off. It can’t work. For a coach, it’s impossible. They were the best team in the world in terms of players, names, but at the same time, difficult to manage. (…) I wasn’t playing, so I was watching .”
