Reports to preseason training
Pacho is back at PSG's training campus for preseson, resuming training Friday, according to Benjamin Quarez of Le Parisien.
Analysis: Pacho finished the World Cup with Ecuador contributing five tackles, eight interceptions, four blocks, 20 clearances and one clean sheet across four matches, including a composed defensive shift in the loss to Mexico in the round of 32, even if the overall tournament fell short of expectations for his caliber. His return to club training now shifts focus to preseason preparations as he looks ahead to the new 2026/27 Ligue 1 season with PSG.
Calm presence despite defeat
Willian Pacho generated one tackle (zero won), four clearances and one interception in Tuesday's 2-0 loss versus Mexico.
Analysis: Pacho brought the most composure to a shaky backline on a tough night in the hostile surroundings of Mexico City, putting in a good defensive shift with one tackle, four clearances, one interception and one block. It still was not enough to avoid the defeat. He ends the tournament with a solid enough individual record but one that did not reach the standard expected of a player of his caliber in a backline that many had anticipated would be one of the stronger units in the competition. He finishes with five tackles, eight interceptions, four blocks, 20 clearances and one clean sheet across four games.
