Parisians receive a warm welcome in Riyadh

The Peninsula

After their day in Doha on Wednesday, the Paris Saint-Germain players arrived in Saudi Arabia yesterday ahead of the high-profile Riyadh Season Cup.

After an emotional day on Wednesday, which ended with a training session for the Parisians in front of 30,000 Qatar fans at the Khalifa Stadium, the Parisian delegation headed for Riyadh yesterday morning.

PSG were particularly well received, as soon as they landed at Riyadh airport, with a presentation of flowers and bouquets.

The warm welcome continued when they arrived at the Fairmont Hotel, where fans of the club from the capital were waiting for Christophe Galtier’s men to welcome them and once again attest to the popularity of the club from the capital in the Arabian Peninsula.

PSG and the Riyadh Season Team yesterday brought together the best players from the Saudi clubs Al Hilal and Al Nassr, on the King Fahd Stadium pitch.

It was also an opportunity to fine-tune the Parisians’ preparation and to present the new Fourth shirt for the 2022-2023 season.
