Sharing his thoughts after PSG booked a spot in the semi-finals, Cole praised the club’s new direction and team structure, saying the French side is finally on the right track to conquer Europe.
PSG edged past Aston Villa with a 5-4 win on aggregate, having secured a 3-1 victory in the first leg before losing 3-2 in the return match at Villa Park.
Next up for Luis Enrique’s side is a semi-final clash against either Arsenal or Real Madrid, while Barcelona—who knocked out Dortmund—will take on Inter Milan or Bayern Munich.
Speaking on TNT Sports, Joe Cole reflected on PSG’s past struggles in the competition and commended the club’s transformation.
He said the team no longer relies solely on star power but now plays as a unit, which gives them a real shot at the title.
“They’re on the right track,” he said. “I really believe they can win it this time. I’m all in.”
Coventry City manager, Frank Lampard, speaks on team player and states how the player’s stance will help the team get into the Premier League.
The player is revealed to be Onyeka who he spoke about in the recent interview.
“He brings a different quality and probably a different profile to the midfield players we have.
“As I say, the profile is slightly different and I think that helps us in terms of the options and the competition in the middle of the park for us.”
Arsenal coach, Mikel Arteta, after their last match, shares an update on the injured team members after their last match.
He shared an update on Saka and stated that he is doing better after going through a hip injury. “His hip is improving a lot. Hopefully, he’ll be ready soon.”
He added about the other team members: “Martin is getting better and will be back in a few days, and Jurrien is fit for the weekend.”
Super Eagles footballer, Alex Iwobi, speaks on the World Cup and reveals their hope to play in the 2026 World Cup.
He shared that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is hopeful about hearing from them after they submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
“I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.
“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
