2017 PSG Home – Neymar Jr #10 M BNWT

The 2017-18 season was historic for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) as they completed the record-breaking signing of Neymar Jr from FC Barcelona for €222 million, the most expensive transfer in football history. Neymar was immediately handed the #10 shirt and became the new face of PSG’s project to dominate both French and European football.

🏆 PSG’s 2017-18 Season Performance

• Ligue 1: 🏆 Champions (Finished with 93 points, 13 clear of second place)

• Coupe de France: 🏆 Winners (beat Les Herbiers 2-0 in the final)

• Coupe de la Ligue: 🏆 Winners (beat Monaco 3-0 in the final)

• Trophée des Champions: 🏆 Winners (beat Monaco 2-1)

• UEFA Champions League: ❌ Eliminated in the Round of 16 by Real Madrid (5-2 aggregate)

PSG dominated French football, winning a domestic quadruple, but the season ended with frustration in Europe, largely because Neymar suffered a serious foot injury late in the season.
