Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) emerged victorious in the European Super Cup, securing a hard-fought victory in a thrilling final that ended in a penalty shootout against Tottenham [6].

Despite this setback, PSG managed to hold on and force the match into extra time, eventually securing their win in the penalty shootout [6].

Meanwhile, Thomas Müller, the German football legend who recently signed with Vancouver Whitecaps FC in Canada, has been making waves off the pitch.

Despite this, Barcelona's goalkeeper situation has been a topic of discussion all summer, with the club yet to find a permanent replacement for the talented ter Stegen [4].
