MORE — Prize money list for Club World Cup
Luis Enrique's PSG have been sensational during this tournament, with the reigning European champions creating so many chances and dominating games. They did have a tough time against Bayern Munich in the quarterfinals, but they got the job done, as they always seem to. Still, they did have two players sent off late on and that could impact them for this semifinal. PSG are the red-hot favorites to win this competition and it feels like they are destined to dominate the club game for years to come.

Real Madrid have really settled in to their new 3-5-2 formation under new manager Xabi Alonso and were pretty comfortable in their quarterfinal win against Borussia Dortmund. Well, until the final few minutes when they almost imploded. Kylian Mbappe is pushing hard to start as he's recovered from his stomach issue and there will be so much focus on the former PSG striker before, during and after this massive semifinal.

PSG team news, focus
Luis Enrique has lost both Willian Pacho and Lucas Hernandez to suspension after they were sent off in the quarterfinal against Bayern. Lucas Beraldo will likely come in to start for Pacho at center back and the only other selection dilemma Enrique has is whether to start Ousmane Dembele up top. Dembele came on and scored against Bayern and now he's back from injury it's likely he starts this game ahead of Bradley Barcola.
Real Madrid team news, focus
Xabi Alonso has a couple of big decisions to make in terms of his starting lineup. Dean Huijsen is suspended after picking up a red card late on against Borussia Dortmund. The young center back has been excellent in his first few games for Real Madrid but he will miss this huge match and Raul Asencio is likely to come in. Kylian Mbappe scored a beauty late on against Dortmund after coming off the bench and he will surely start against PSG. Young forward Gonzalo Garcia has been a revelation up top, scoring four goals in five games so far to lead the competition in scoring. But this is Mbappe. Against PSG. He has to start. David Alaba, Ferland Mendy, Eduardo Camavinga and Endrick remain out injured.
PSG vs Real Madrid prediction
This is going to be a classic. You can just feel it. PSG will press high and try to dictate the tempo and Real are just fine with making the most of space on the counter. Hold on to your hats. PSG 4-3 Real Madrid.

Analysis: The Stats Behind Chelsea's Latest £48.5m Signing
Jamie Gittens Joins Chelsea: Speed, Skill and Long-Term Strategy Chelsea have completed the signing of Jamie Gittens from Borussia Dortmund for £48.5 million, with a further £3.5 million potentially due in add-ons. The 20-year-old winger arrives at Stamford Bridge with a reputation for beating defenders and injecting pace into games. Having signed a seven-year contract, Gittens represents a long-term project for Chelsea rather than a quick fix. Advertisement Gittens has endured a disrupted rise. Injuries hampered his early years at Dortmund, but last season he broke through, delivering high-impact performances down the left flank. His speed and skill caught the eye during Dortmund's strong first half of the 2023-24 campaign, although form tailed off after managerial changes. 'He made his debut under Marco Rose (in April 2022), but since then it's been great development,' said Dortmund's Lars Ricken. 'We said, 'OK, we can develop him into a great player.'' Photo IMAGO With Jadon Sancho departed, Mudryk suspended, and Geovany Quenda arriving next summer, Chelsea required reinforcements out wide. Gittens now becomes one of the few senior wingers available to Enzo Maresca, joining Noni Madueke and the injury-prone Pedro Neto in the rotation. Advertisement Fitting into Maresca's Philosophy Gittens' success at Chelsea will hinge on adapting to Maresca's structure. His game thrives on freedom, space and confidence. At Dortmund, he averaged 9.3 take-ons per 90 minutes, the highest in the Bundesliga among wide players, converting 45 per cent of them. These are elite dribbling numbers and indicative of someone comfortable going one-on-one. 'He is a counter-attacking threat, but also capable of disrupting a low-block,' noted The Athletic's analysis. His ability to use both feet and get shots off under pressure makes him a multi-faceted forward, though questions remain over his off-ball work and defensive contributions. 'He does not contribute a lot without the ball and that's an area that will have to improve,' said Seb Stafford-Bloor. 'It will come with more experience, though.' Advertisement Chelsea's measured possession style and pressing schemes could require a steep learning curve for Gittens, who often thrived on chaos rather than control. Financial Engineering and Long-Term Vision Gittens' deal is another example of Chelsea's aggressive amortisation model. Though he signed a seven-year contract, both Premier League and UEFA rules cap amortisation at five years. That means his £48.5 million fee will cost Chelsea £11.1 million per year in PSR terms, despite being spread at £7.9 million annually in the club's official accounts. Wages remain undisclosed, but the total investment over the course of the deal will exceed £55 million. Chelsea's continued use of long-term contracts underlines their commitment to long-term value protection, while potentially testing the patience of fans who expect immediate impact. Advertisement Dortmund's Smart Profit and English Youth Pipeline Dortmund, meanwhile, are set to bank a near-complete profit from the transfer. Signed from Manchester City's academy in 2020, Gittens cost them very little and leaves five years later for a huge fee. No sell-on clause was inserted due to his age when he left City. Reading and City will receive modest solidarity payments of around £0.4 million each. Dortmund will retain the bulk of the £2.4 million solidarity fee, rounding off a deal that demonstrates the strength of their talent development pipeline. As Chelsea look to the future, Dortmund once again profit from nurturing a young English talent abroad and selling at peak value. Advertisement Our View – EPL Index Analysis This transfer is exactly what Chelsea fans have been crying out for. Gittens brings pace, directness and unpredictability, and those traits have been missing since Eden Hazard's departure. Sure, he is young and raw, but so were Reece James and Levi Colwill at one point. What matters is the willingness to take on responsibility and make things happen, which Gittens clearly has. The fact that he's already producing numbers like 9.3 take-ons per 90 in a major league at 20 is a huge statement. We've been far too reliant on stop-start players like Mudryk and underwhelming options like Madueke. With Sancho gone and Estevao still a project, Gittens gives us immediate thrust on the wing. Enzo Maresca's system might demand more structure, but with time and coaching, Gittens could explode. Fans understand this won't be perfect from day one, but watching someone take defenders on with confidence is going to lift Stamford Bridge. This deal feels like a smart mix of data-led recruitment and football sense. It is another step towards reshaping Chelsea's identity.
