Paris Saint-Germain has arrived in Los Angeles to prepare for the FIFA Club World Cup, where they’ll face top clubs and stars from around the world.

Paris Saint-Germain landed in Los Angeles just over a week after winning the UEFA Champions League. The French club will play its first two games at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, starting with a match against Atletico Madrid on Sunday.

Luis Enrique expressed his excitement, saying, “Nice feeling because it’s a unique competition, a new competition. We’re happy to be here. Now, it’s moment to rest.”

PSG will face Atletico Madrid, followed by Brazil’s Botafogo on June 19th, and finish group play against the Seattle Sounders on June 25th.

The tournament features top European clubs like Real Madrid, Manchester City, and Bayern Munich, with superstars like Kylian Mbappé, Vinícius Júnior, and Erling Haaland expected to play. The prize money is substantial, with the winner set to take home $125 million from a total pot of $1 billion.
