This is a first for him! Integrated into the training of the professional group for two weeks, David Boly will be called up by Luis Enrique for the trip to Lyon, this Sunday at 8:45 p.m., at the end of the 12th day of Ligue 1. “He will be in the group that we are going to call up,” the Parisian coach announced at a press conference. The 16-year-old right back, born in 2009, strengthens the team in the absence of Achraf Hakimi who will miss several weeks of competition due to a serious injury to his left ankle on Tuesday evening, following a violent tackle by the Bavarian Luis Diaz.
At the Parisian training center, at the moment, David Boly is seen as the great promise at the right-back position. Still upgraded since his arrival in 2022, the native of Colombes (Hauts-de-Seine) is already playing his second season in the Youth League with PSG. He has just distinguished himself in this competition by putting in a solid match against Bayern Munich (Parisian victory 3-0).
The young fullback is returning to his best form after missing four months of competition with a shoulder injury.
He is registered in the Champions League
Central defender during his first year at PSG, he moved towards the right wing where he showed aptitude for the very high level in terms of power and explosiveness. Having passed through FC Asnières and Racing Club de France at a younger age, David Boly could have a hand in the coming weeks to follow in the footsteps of Achraf Hakimi who is supposed to play in the African Cup of Nations with Morocco.
The club has also included him in the list for the first phase of the Champions League, assuming that they are counting on him in this period. The choice not to release him for the U17 World Cup with the France team also goes in this direction.
Coach Lionel Rouxel wanted to have him for the tournament currently being played in Qatar, but PSG preferred to keep him. On Campus, it has been said for some time that Luis Enrique closely follows his performances and that he believes a lot in his potential. After this first group, perhaps he will succeed in finding a place in the rotation this season. Discussions for a first professional contract have not yet started, but the club is already sending him the message that it is counting on him. For the present and for the future.
