Blue Lock chapter 244, titled PXG, will most likely focus on the Paris X Gen team. There is a good chance that the next chapter will start the match between Bastard Munchen and Paris X Gen. However, after the match against Manshine City, it took a good number of chapters before the match against Ubers began.

Hence, the upcoming chapter may instead be focusing on the Paris X Gen team, revealing to fans the key players the Germany team should look out for. In addition, fans may get a glimpse of France Master Striker Julian Loki.
