Paris Saint-Germain and Aston Villa kick off the European season this Wednesday, August 12, at Salzburg's Red Bull Arena in Austria, where they will contest the UEFA Super Cup final. The clash pits the reigning two-time Champions League winners against the English side in a high-stakes showdown.
In the pre-match press conference, Luis Enrique made clear the Parisian side's highest ambition for the 2026/27 campaign.
