European Super Cup: What PSG starting eleven against Tottenham?
PSG In just two days, PSG will return to action with the European Super Cup final. Achraf Hakimi and which Parisian players should be in the starting lineup to face Tottenham? A month after losing the Club World Cup final to Chelsea (3-0), PSG is already back in competition. On Wednesday night, the reigning European champions will lock horns with Tottenham for the European Super Cup. For the final, apart from Lucas Chevalier, who will step in for Gigio Donnarumma between the posts, the rest of the lineup should follow a classic setup. The Marquinhos-Pacho duo is expected to anchor the center of defense, while Achraf Hakimi and Mendes will start on the flanks. One major absentee to note: Joao Neves, suspended for this clash, will be replaced by Zaïre-Emery. Vitinha and Fabian Ruiz, mainstays throughout last season, are set to feature as well. Up front, Luis Enrique is sticking to his tried-and-true formula. The attacking trio of Doué, Dembélé, and Kvaratskhelia, who started in the Champions League final, should get the nod again.

Tottenham Get Good News Ahead of Facing PSG in UEFA Super Cup
PSG will face Tottenham Hotspur on August 13 in the UEFA Super Cup, kicking off the 2025-26 season with a chance to win a major trophy.

The midfielder is suspended for the match after he received a red card in the final of the FIFA Club World Cup against Chelsea. Neves will not only be suspended for PSG's clash against Spurs.

Tottenham Hotspur handed advantage as PSG star Joao Neves is suspended for UEFA Super Cup
Tottenham Hotspur have been handed a boost ahead of their UEFA Super Cup game against Paris Saint-Germain in Italy on Wednesday as the French club will be without Joao Neves. The Portuguese midfielder is suspended for the game against the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium club following his red card in the Club World Cup final against Chelsea last month, according to French outlet RMC Sport. It is good news for Spurs as PSG manager Luis Enrique has a selection headache to battle with given the influence of the Neves in the middle of the park for his team. New Tottenham manager Thomas Frank will be eager to win his first competitive game in charge, and having his opponents unable to call upon one of their best players is a boost. Spurs have played six games in pre-season this summer but have won just twice and will need to be at the top of their game individually and collectively if they want to win on Wednesday. They lost 4-0 to Bayern Munich last Thursday following a 1-1 draw with Newcastle United last Sunday, and Frank will need his men to turn up against PSG.

The tournament will generate $1.3 billion in projected total labor income for the regional economy, and $1.7 billion in projected spending within the regional economy by match and non-match attendees, according to the committee's estimates. Next year's games are expected to be the most highly attended in FIFA's history, with roughly six million fans from around the world projected to attend the tournament's 104 matches in the US, Canada and Mexico.

'It's a legacy-defining opportunity to create lasting economic and social impact for New York and New Jersey,' said Alex Lasry, chief executive officer of the NYNJ Host Committee in a statement. 'From record tourism and global visibility to local investment and job creation, this tournament will help shape the future of our region.' President Donald Trump — who refers to FIFA President Gianni Infantino as a friend — has high expectations for next year's turnout even as he continues to roll out tariffs on a swath of countries, including nations that are expected to compete in the World Cup next year. 'Tensions are a good thing,' Trump said during a FIFA task force meeting at the White House earlier this year when asked about how his policies could impact the games. 'It'll make it more exciting.'

The event will also bring in roughly $432 million in state and local tax revenues. The study was carried out in partnership with Tourism Economics, which is owned by Oxford Economics. The Club World Cup 2025 — a 63-match competition between top club soccer teams from around the world — concluded with a final hosted by the New Jersey-New York region on July 13. The tournament sold close to 1.5 million tickets, according to a statement from FIFA. The games served as a small preview of what's to come in 2026. 'In less than one year from today, more than one billion people around the world will be watching,' said Chair of the NYNJ Host Committee Tammy Murphy in a statement. 'The countdown is on for this once-in-a-generation opportunity to showcase our region on the world stage.' Toronto & GTA Uncategorized Football Canada Editorial Cartoons
