Ligue 1 - Paris FC: Jean-Philippe Krasso, the striker’s downside

Jean-Philippe Krasso bears the brunt of the change in squad depth of Paris FC. Regular striker and one of the major architects of the team’s rise to Ligue 1, the Ivorian international striker is no longer a potential starter. Worse, he is on a long series of matches without scoring.

Ligue 1 - Paris FC: Jean-Philippe Krasso, the striker’s downside




Krasso released an XXL 2024/25 season with Paris FC. He scored 17 goals and delivered 5 assists in 31 games in all competitions. This season, the situation has changed in Ligue 1. He plays less and it affects his statistics.

15 matches without scoring

This season, the Ivorian has only scored two goals in 22 games in total. His last goal dates back to October 3, 2025, during the 7th day of Ligue 1 against FC Lorient. Since then nothing. He played 15 matches in all competitions without finding the nets. 

At the end of 2024, Paris FC was bought by the Arnault family (via the Agache holding) and the Red Bull group. Since this takeover, the club from Ile-de-France has become more ambitious. Promoted to Ligue 1 this season, the team has strengthened in several positions, notably in attack. On the offensive side, the managers recruited Willem Geubbels last summer and Ciro Immobile, during the last winter transfer window. These two attackers are in addition to Pierre-Yves Hamel, currently injured, and Krasso. As a result, the Ivorian is no longer the number one choice and has only racked up 977 minutes since the start of the season. 


With a total of 11 starts, Jean-Philippe Krasso is not entirely satisfactory. His figures are far from attractive. The native of Stuttgart is clearly not confident. He is on a 4-month streak without scoring in club.

Despite the significant recruitments, Paris FC is far from having a great season for their return to Ligue 1. The club is ranked 15th with 22 points, or 5 wins, 7 draws and 10 defeats. During the 23rd round, the team, which is fighting for its maintenance, will travel to Toulouse FC next Saturday. Krasso must raise his level to play his part so that his club can remain in the elite despite his meager playing time.
