Wang Shuang has quickly become a valuable contributor for the PSG Women, but her transition from China to the French League did not come without difficulties, which range from dealing with the language barrier to balancing her duties between club and country.

WANG SHUANG PSG MIDFIELDER "It means both responsibility and honor, at the same time, for me to represent Paris Saint Germain. I think I have a responsibility to perform well here. At the same time, it is a recognition of Chinese football, because our Chinese players have the ability and skills to do well here in Europe."

"I think it is still very difficult for me to settle down. Language is an issue. On the pitch, there are different playing styles, as well as adjustments and physical disadvantages for me to overcome. A lot of new things compared to what I used to do in China. I think I need to work much harder than my other teammates if I want to do well, but I am getting help from my coaches and everybody else at the club. They help me a lot on and off the pitch, and I am really grateful for that."

"The first time I met Mbappe and Neymar was in Shenzhen, where I officially signed with PSG. The men's team was in Shenzhen to play in the French Super Cup against Monaco. I was also there, and Neymar welcomed me to the PSG family."

"Of course, I think our head coach, Jia Xiuquan, has given a lot of hope to the Chinese women's national team. We did pretty well at the Asian Games by reaching the final. All of the players are full of passion and confidence right now, so we are really looking forward to the World Cup in France next year. I am sure we will be ready to show the world that our generation has the determination and ability to do well in the World Cup."

"My ultimate goal is to become a key player in Europe, to become fully confident with the pace of play here, and to be able to show everything I can do in such highly competitive games. I want to win many more matches with my team."
