Manchester City is set to begin its campaign for a fifth consecutive Premier League title with a challenging opener against Chelsea under new manager Enzo Maresca, though they face fitness issues with key players like Rodri and Julian Alvarez unavailable. Paris Saint-Germain commenced their Ligue 1 season with a 4-1 victory over Le Havre, showcasing their depth despite Kylian Mbappe's move to Real Madrid. Manchester United's new signing Joshua Zirkzee scored a late winner in their opening match against Fulham. The Premier League transfer window has seen significant activity, with notable signings like Riccardo Calafiori to Arsenal and Dominic Solanke to Tottenham. Additionally, the integration of fan tokens and cryptocurrencies is expected to see increased volatility with the new season's excitement.
