PSG given extra dressing room after complaints ahead of Super Cup
Paris Saint-Germain have been given an additional dressing room at the Red Bull Arena after expressing dissatisfaction with their facilities ahead of Wednesday’s UEFA Super Cup against Aston Villa.
Champions League winners PSG were initially allocated the away dressing room at the stadium in Austria, while Europa League champions Aston Villa were using Red Bull Salzburg’s home dressing room.
PSG officials raised concerns with UEFA during a pre-match meeting on Monday, saying their allocated dressing room was too small.
UEFA subsequently made a spare dressing room available to PSG, allowing the French side more space and facilities comparable to those provided to Aston Villa.
The additional room is normally used by match officials, but UEFA said no officials were moved to accommodate PSG.
Luis Enrique’s side will face Unai Emery’s Aston Villa in the Super Cup, which brings together the winners of Europe’s two major club competitions from the previous season.
