Among them are names that resonate in the collective memory of Parisian fans: Jimmy Algérino, Milan Bisevac, Clément Chantôme, Amara Diané, Didier Domi, Boukary Dramé, David Ginola, Ludovic Giuly, Guillaume Hoarau, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Christophe Jallet, Presnel Kimpembe, Laurent Leroy, Danijel Ljuboja, David Luiz, Claude Makélélé, Blaise Matuidi, Patrick Mboma, Jérémie Ménez, Bruno Ngotty, Bartholomew Ogbeche, Fabrice Pancrate, Javier Pastore, Pedro Miguel Pauleta, Eric Rabesandratana, Ronaldinho, Jérôme Rothen, Mamadou Sakho, Amara Simba, Salvatore Sirigu, Juan-Pablo Sorin, Siaka Tiéné, Sammy Traoré and Jean-Luc Vasseur. Generations all making the journey to experience this historic moment together.
This initiative embodies a core value of the Paris Saint-Germain project: the passing of the torch between generations to write the history of a Club that has carved out its place on the European stage, chapter by chapter.
The highlight of the evening will be when Presnel Kimpembe enjoys the honour of taking the trophy onto the pitch to start the opening ceremony, just as Javier Pastore did last year. A powerful symbol entrusted to one of the Club’s iconic figures, a player who embodies the pride of a golden generation at Paris Saint-Germain.
From players who came through the Club’s ranks to those who wore the Parisian colours on the biggest international stages, each embodies a part of Paris Saint-Germain’s heritage and has contributed, in their own way, to building the PSG of today.
The presence of these Parisian legends in Budapest holds particular significance. Beyond paying tribute to those who have written the Club’s history, Paris Saint-Germain celebrates what makes it unique: a strong link between its past, present and future, upheld by those who have helped to promote Paris and its colours across the globe.
