UWCL: Super Falcons defender named in PSG squad for Man United clash

Super Falcons defender Nicole Payne has been named in Paris Saint-Germain’s squad for their UEFA Women’s Champions League clash against Manchester United.

Payne is among the 25 players selected for the game by manager Jocelyn Precheur.

The full-back failed to make the matchday squad for the first leg.

The 22-year-old joined PSG from USC Trojans this summer but has struggled for regular playing time at the club.

The Nigerian is yet to make an appearance for PSG in the league.

Payne’s only appearance came in the League Cup clash against Olympic Lyon.

She is in Nigeria’s squad for the 2024 Olympic Games qualifier against Ethiopia.
