PSG is convinced it has secured a future phenomenon. Arriving on a free transfer, Renato Marin is already causing a stir at the club, where he is seen as the next world number one. Naturally, a question begins to arise: should Chevalier be worried?
In Paris, there are still smiles when discussing the Renato Marin case. Young, talented, with an impressive physique… and acquired for free. Since his arrival, the Italian goalkeeper has been sending positive signals and is rapidly rising in the staff’s esteem. Enough to shake up the hierarchy at the position.

It is difficult for Chevalier to ignore this statement. The club is convinced that Marin ticks all the boxes of the touted star. His quick learning, perfect integration, and ability to absorb Luis Enrique’s playing ideas are praised. Discreet, hardworking, ambitious: a profile that is appealing… and that is dangerously advancing towards the top of the table.
A rough diamond just waiting to be polished. And at PSG, they do not take such precautions for a mere number 2.
Luis Enrique already under the spell: bad news for Chevalier
Luis Enrique is closely monitoring the development of the young Italian. The coach appreciates everything: his physique, his technique, his seriousness. “He has the physical and technical qualities. I like his training,” he remarks with a smirk. And when Luis Enrique likes a player, the hierarchy can change very quickly. Chevalier knows this: his status could be challenged sooner than expected.
For Marin, the message is simple: keep progressing, stay humble, wait for his time. For Chevalier, the subtext is just as clear: competition has arrived, and it is fierce.
