Recruited by PSG this summer for €45M, Lucas Hernandez offers several possibilities to Luis Enrique. Capable of playing as a left-back but also as a central defender, the Frenchman is mainly used in the corridor. But according to Jimmy Algérino, Hernandez should be used in the center, because it corresponds to his primary qualities.
What will the rest of the season be like? PSG ? After a summer transfer window marked by the arrivals of numerous players, will the Parisian club strengthen itself from next January? Several defensive reinforcements are already assured to Luis Enrique and his staff.
Towards Nuno Mendes-Lucas Hernandez competition at PSG?
Indeed, Presnel Kimpembe et Nuno Mendes, two important elements of the Parisian defensive sector in recent years, will make their comeback. If for Kimpembea return to the field seems very close, the Portuguese will not return to PSG only in 2024. But with Nuno Mendes Now, will Lucas Hernandez be moved to central defense?
“That’s what he’s good at”
Former player of PSG from 1996 to 2001, Jimmy Algerino believes that the position of central defender corresponds more to the fighting qualities of Lucas Hernandez : “On the left, he has an old-fashioned full-back role who doesn’t go up much, defends, makes the effort. That’s where he’s good. You feel that he needs to rub shoulders with the midfielder or the attacker. He is a player who must be in the fight and it is in the center that it happens. He has to be at the heart of the defensive zone,” says Algerino in the columns of Le Parisien.
