Vitinha faces fatigue concerns at Paris Saint-Germain
Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Vitinha is showing signs of physical fatigue following a heavy schedule of matches for both club and country. While not currently injured, reports suggest his performance levels have dipped, characterized by decreased physical energy and uncharacteristic technical errors.
Vitinha has been a mainstay in Luis Enrique’s lineup, playing nearly every minute of PSG’s recent matches, including only missing the final 21 minutes against Rennes. His workload was recently intensified by the international break, where he participated in four Nations League matches for Portugal within an eleven-day period.
With PSG facing a dense schedule in October—including six matches in twenty days against opponents such as Manchester City and FC Barcelona—manager Luis Enrique faces the challenge of managing Vitinha’s rest to maintain the team’s effectiveness.
