PSG have added several fans after the signature of 6 time Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi.
The Argentine joined ex-teammate Neymar as well as pacey French forward Kylian Mbappe. Together, all three have formed an unholy trinity for Paris-Saint-Germain. As they remain on paper, one of the most feared front three in football presently.
More details on the Unholy trinity
Due to what these front three bring to the table, they are presently the highest-paid in world football. With salaries worth 650, 310 and 490 thousand euros, Messi, Neymar and Mbappe together earn over 1.5million euros weekly.
With all the brilliance radiating from the PSG squad, it was surprising to see them stutter and stumble in a Champions League tie against Club Brugge.
Apart from the apparent brilliance of the Club Brugge players, there was a particular player who caught the eyes of many. He was none other than the Scottish centre back, Jack Hendry.
Highlights on Jack Hendry
The Scottish midfielder is not one known for his physical prowess, or his ability to put in strong tackles. However, he is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to reading the game and making crucial interceptions.
In other words, he is the perfect description of a right place, right time defender.
His brilliance against the PSG front three has led many to wonder where Jack Hendry had been all these years.
Well, surprising for some and not so surprising for others, the career of Jack Hendry has not been a rosy one. The Scottish man had played his trade for over 11 clubs. With him just turning 26, that stat is quite surprising.
Injuries and adaptation, have been a major reason behind Jack Hendry's failure to break into the top tiers of defenders. However, it is great to see that he has finally found his footing in Club Brugge.
Conclusion
With his performances, it was obvious that Jack Hendry can easily break into the starting lineup of many top European teams.
Provided he continues in this manner, it would not be surprising to see him being signed by some of the elite European teams in the upcoming summer transfer window.
