Just weeks after winning a first-ever UEFA Champions League title, PSG have landed in the United States with one mission, to win the new-look FIFA Club World Cup.
Midfielder Vitinha was firm over where the team’s focus is ahead of a Group B opener against Atletico Madrid on June 15.
“We’re good, we feel good, we are enjoying a new experience, a new culture, in a new country.
“We’re happy to be here and are making the most of it at training. We’ll be ready for Sunday’s game. We’re here to win.”
“We’re not in the USA on holidays or as tourists. We came here to win. It’s another big competition, a new format for the first time. We want to write history again; we want to win again.”
“But we also know we need to take it one step at a time, focus on the first game, and prepare the best we can, as we did today in training and as we have done in all our training sessions, in order to be ready.”
