Regarded as one of the greatest talents of his generation, Renars Uscins has established himself in recent seasons as one of the Bundesliga’s leading players. Blessed with outstanding physical attributes and a strong ability to make a difference in attack, the German international has distinguished himself through his consistency and effectiveness at the highest level.
After playing all his youth handball in Germany, Renars Uscins continued to develop whilst playing for TSV Hannover-Burgdorf, where he quickly established himself as one of his team’s leaders. His performances have also secured him a permanent place in the German national team. A silver medallist with Germany at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, he was notably voted the tournament’s best right-back, a recognition of his major impact throughout the competition. He has made a lasting impression with his performances in major international tournaments and his vital role in his national team’s campaign.
At just 23 years of age, Renars Uscins already has solid experience at the very highest level and is one of the most promising players in European handball in his position.
Paris Saint-Germain Handball is delighted to welcome Renars to the squad and wishes him every success in his new colours.
“We are delighted to welcome Renars to Paris Saint-Germain Handball. Despite his young age, he has already demonstrated all his qualities in the Bundesliga as well as with the German national team. He is a modern player, capable of making a significant impact in all areas of the game. His profile fits perfectly with our ambitions for the coming years and we are convinced that he will continue to develop within the Club.”
“Joining Paris Saint-Germain Handball represents a very important step in my career. It is one of Europe’s biggest clubs, with great ambitions and a winning culture. I am looking forward to discovering this new environment, meeting my future team-mates and giving my all to help the team achieve its goals.”

About Paris Saint-Germain Handball
Founded in 1970 and winners of the UEFA Champions League in 2025, Paris Saint-Germain is France’s most successful club and a leading force in European football, combining sporting excellence, innovation and social commitment to shape the future of sport. Since 2011, under the leadership of Qatar Sports Investments (QSI), it has established itself as a multi-sport organisation (men’s and women’s football, handball, judo and esports).
Since its takeover by QSI in 2012, the handball section has risen to become one of the leading teams in European handball, winning 23 national titles and qualifying for the EHF Champions League Final4 six times in eight seasons. Over the seasons, the team has boasted some of the world’s best players, including Mikkel Hansen, Luc Abalo, Thierry Omeyer, Daniel Narcisse and the Karabatic brothers, and has strengthened its squad by developing young talent from its youth academy. This strategy has enabled the club to set new records, such as the perfect league season in 2021–2022, with thirty wins from as many matches.
With over 500 million fans and 230 million followers, it has become a global brand at the intersection of sport, culture and fashion, notably thanks to its partnership with Jordan. In 2024, PSG opened the PSG Campus, a state-of-the-art complex costing 300 million euros. As a ‘New Generation Club’, Paris Saint-Germain combines sporting excellence, cultural influence and social impact to shape the future of sport and society.
