The atmosphere in the PSG group may have reached a point of no return. During training on Saturday April 23, and on the eve of a decisive match against their Lyon rivals, Kheira Hamraoui and Sandy Baltimore had an altercation. An event that the club tries to minimize by talking about a “incident between players” in a press release. “An altercation as there can sometimes be in training the day before very important matches”, also confides a source close to the club to AFP.

But the consequences are heavy: Kheira Hamraoui did not show up for the trip to Lyon and will therefore not be in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final. Incidents which add to an already tense situation within the Parisian locker room since the attack on the French international in November. His teammate Aminata Diallo, present during the crime, was accused of being the cause and was taken into custody before being cleared of all suspicion.
But since the relations between Hamraoui and several of her teammates are icy, the latter accusing him of the police custody of Aminata Diallo. Marie-Antoinette Katoto and Kadidatou Diani had, in February, celebrated a goal by making an “A” with their fingers, in support of Aminata Diallo.
Bad news for Paris, the day before facing Lyon in the last four of the Champions League. “Paris Saint-Germain’s lifeblood is focused on sporting goals and Sunday’s match”, wrote the PSG in its press release. But such an atmosphere could well weigh down Didier Ollé-Nicolle’s players against their best Rhone enemies. Unless it brings them back together for a match.
