SLAMABAD, March 7 — Star-studded Paris Saint-Germain, galvanised by 20-year-old World Cup winner Kylian Mbappe, will lift the Uefa Champions League this season, former French international Nicolas Anelka told AFP.

The much-travelled striker hailed the club’s “extraordinary” staff, with a squad containing Brazilian superstars Dani Alves, Thiago Silva and the currently-injured Neymar, Argentina’s Angel di Maria, Uruguay’s Edinson Cavani and Mbappe, who was voted Best Young Player at last year’s World Cup.
Anelka, 39, arrived in Pakistan on Tuesday as part of the World Soccer Stars, a programme to develop interest in football in the South Asian country where cricket is king.
