PSG announced the relocation of its Ligue 1 opener against Rennes after severe pitch damage from summer heat. The extreme heatwave destroyed the grass, forcing the club to move the match 350 km away. The game will be played in Rennes, Brittany's capital, after an agreement with the opponent. The club apologized for the inconvenience to fans and assured repairs at Parc des Princes will be completed before the Monaco match on September 4. The situation highlights the impact of extreme heat across Europe, which also affected other clubs like Celta Vigo, which postponed its La Liga opener against Osasuna due to a fungal outbreak.
