PSG shift from individual play to zonal football
L’Équipe explains how PSG is fine-tuning its zonal approach in Ligue 1 2026-27.
PSG is changing how it approaches games, moving from individual initiatives toward a more collective setup built around zonal positioning, according to L’Équipe.
The objective is to share spaces more effectively so the team can react as a unit both in attack and immediately after losing possession. The adjustment aims to reduce the dependence on one-off actions and increase the reliability of the team’s structure.
For now, the big focus of the shift is the off-the-ball work: how PSG reorganizes to cover key areas across each phase of play in Ligue 1 2026-27.
