Premier League, take note: PSG and Bayern Munich's flying forward lines are the future of football

Returns to bench Mendes (thigh) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Angers.

Impact Mendes has been included in the squad after being sidelined since suffering a thigh issue during the Champions League win over Liverpool, with the coaching staff set to ease him back via the bench in line with the initial expectation surrounding his return. The Portuguese full-back's availability could not come at a better time for PSG, who are gearing up for a packed run-in that includes Tuesday's Champions League semifinal against Bayern Munich, and some minutes off the bench against Angers should serve as the ideal tune-up ahead of that massive showdown. Lucas Hernandez is set to retain the left-back spot in the meantime as Mendes works his way back to full fitness.

Back fit for Angers clash Mendes recovered from his thigh issue and is available for Saturday's clash against Angers, the club announced.

Impact Mendes has been out since suffering a thigh issue during the Champions League win over Liverpool, with Lucas Hernandez stepping in at left-back while he was sidelined. His return couldn't come at a better time for PSG as they gear up for a packed run-in, especially with Tuesday's Champions League semifinal against Bayern Munich looming large. The Portuguese full-back is unlikely to be thrown straight into the starting XI, but getting some minutes against Angers should be the ideal tune-up ahead of that massive showdown.

The club will provide further updates on his condition in the coming days before setting a clearer return timeline.

Impact Mendes had been forced off in the 38th minute of Tuesday's Champions League clash against Liverpool with an issue to his thigh, and while the club's description of the problem as a minor complaint is relatively reassuring, the tight turnaround before Sunday makes his involvement uncertain. Lucas Hernandez stepped in to replace him against Liverpool and is expected to continue at left-back if Mendes cannot be cleared in time, with PSG needing to manage their squad carefully heading into the Champions League semifinals.

Forced off in UCL play Mendes appeared to have suffered an apparent muscle injury in Tuesday's contest against Liverpool, forcing him off in the 38th minute.

Impact Mendes would need to leave the field in the first half Tuesday after he went down with an injury, with the defender appearing to have suffered a muscular issue. This is something to monitor as he is a crucial piece to both the attack and defense from his left-back spot, potentially missing time as they head into the UCL semifinals and as they deal with a closer league race than they are used to. He was replaced by Lucas Hernandez, who would likely earn more time moving forward if Mendes is sidelined.

Provides one assist off bench Mendes assisted once to go with one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 3-1 win versus Toulouse.

Impact Mendes came on in the 68th minute in Friday's 3-1 win against Toulouse, providing a late assist for Goncalo Ramos after a driving run through the middle while adding one key pass. The full-back remains an important contributor on both ends, consistently delivering solid performances this season, and offers valuable versatility across multiple positions, recording six goals and seven assists in 31 appearances across all competitions.

Records goal and assist Mendes scored one goal and assisted once from one shot and three chances created in Saturday's 4-0 victory against Nice.

Impact Mendes delivered a standout performance in Saturday's 4-0 win over Nice, opening the scoring from the penalty spot before adding an assist for Desire Doue after a strong run into the box. The Portuguese, deployed at left wing for this match, was heavily involved on both ends of the pitch, recording three key passes and one block while maintaining constant pressure after turnovers. The versatile full back remains a key piece in his side's attacking system, having recorded six goals and six assists in 30 appearances across all competitions this season, and appears to have moved to the top of the penalty taking hierarchy following several misses from his teammates.

Provides assist on opener Mendes assisted once to go with three shots (one on goal) and five chances created in Sunday's 5-0 win over Marseille.

Impact Mendes set the tone early by delivering a perfectly weighted ball into the box to assist Ousmane Dembele's opener in the 12th minute, capping off a brilliant run down the left flank. He was relentless pushing forward all night, consistently overloading Marseille's right side, putting defenders in tough spots, and opening lanes for Desire Doue and Bradley Barcola to attack inside. PSG's fast start ran through his width and timing, and his dominant showing in the Classique was underscored by a season high five chances created on the night.
