“This is the best club in France and one of the best in the world. This is a huge club, so to be there is a big pleasure. I will wear this shirt with pride. Every player wants to play for big clubs to win trophies. I think I’m in the right place for that.” When she signed for Paris Saint-Germain few weeks ago, Annahita Zamanian didn’t hide her desire to play to top-level football with a team used to chase honors in France as well as one the continental scene.
The first weeks spent in Paris should reassure her. After playing her first games in the French top flight, the 20-year-old midfielder, who took part in the Sud Ladies Cup 2018, has made her Champions League debut on this Thursday. Zamanian has played the full game against St Pölten (2-0) and helped her side to qualify for the the last-16.
Paris SG will try to repeat the performances made in 2015 and 2017 heroics when they reached the Champions League final.
