The story

Willian Pacho is an Ecuadorian centre-back who joined PSG in 2024 and has since won back-to-back UEFA Champions League and Ligue 1 titles. One of the most decorated Ecuadorian defenders in recent history, he was named in the FIFA Men's World 11 for 2025.

Pacho came through Independiente del Valle, winning the U-20 Copa Libertadores in 2020 and the Ecuadorian Serie A in 2021, before Royal Antwerp signed him. At Antwerp he won the Belgian Pro League and Cup in 2022–23, then Eintracht Frankfurt bought him before PSG acquired him in 2024.

With PSG he has won the Champions League, Ligue 1 and Coupe de France in successive seasons. He has 34 senior caps for Ecuador and made his debut against Australia in March 2023, scoring on his first appearance.
