Ligue 1 champions, Paris Saint-Germain, will wear special shirts in their French league match against Lorient, on Saturday, to honour victims of the Paris attacks.

The jerseys will be embroidered with a special message 'Je suis Paris' below the club's logo on the chest of the shirt.

The message evokes memories of the ‘Je suis Charlie’ tribute that spread in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo terror attacks, which also occurred in the French capital in January this year.

PSG have not said how long they will continue to wear the message on their shirts.

All French league games will go ahead as scheduled this weekend, but away supporters will not be allowed to attend matches for security reasons.
