The second leg of the 2024/25 UEFA Champions League semi-final will usher in another focus match, and French Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain will host Arsenal at the Parc des Princes. Paris Saint-Germain defender Ashraf said that in addition to constantly striving for improvement, he is also very willing to help every teammate in the team and hopes to be a role model for young players.

In the first leg of the Champions League semi-final, Paris Saint-Germain relied on Kvaratskhelia to assist Dembele to score, and finally defeated Arsenal coached by Arteta 1-0 at the Emirates Stadium.

"We know tomorrow will be a special day for all Parisians," Ashraf, 26, said in an interview. "The atmosphere at the Parc des Princes will be very hot, and we know that outside the stadium and throughout the city will support us. Our fans deserve the opportunity to see the team reach the final, so we will do our best to make them proud."

When talking about his teammate Dembele, Ashraf shared, "Dembele is the kind of player that makes people want to go to the stadium to watch the game. He can change the course of the game at any time. We are very happy that he can return to the lineup. He is a very important member of our team. However, if he cannot play tomorrow, other players with the same strength will step up. For Paris Saint-Germain, the team is the key, which is also an important feature of the club in the past two years."

"I always try to help every player in the team, especially the younger ones. It's a very important role and I will lead by example and take on that role both on and off the court. I think that's the best thing I can do."

So far this season in Ligue 1, Ashraf has contributed 4 goals and 6 assists for Paris Saint-Germain, and scored 2 goals and contributed 5 assists in the Champions League. He is a very important member of the team.

Ashraf said, "I think this is one of the best seasons in my career. I have more confidence in myself and I have become more mature. These are all gained from experience. I feel that I have become better. Of course, I still have room for improvement, which is also my goal. Personal improvement is important, but the most important thing is to win with the team, whether it is at the club or the national team."

"I've had many great coaches throughout my career and I'm very grateful to them for their work in developing me. Luis Enrique helped me reach a level I never imagined. Because of his guidance, I became a more complete player and he gave me the freedom I needed."
