Thanks to the support of their 18,000 fans at the Puskás Aréna, and cheered on by millions of supporters in Paris, across France and around the world, the Rouge et Bleu have added a 60th title to their trophy cabinet with Europe’s most prestigious honour. Paris Saint-Germain become the first French club in history to win the Champions League twice, and the second European club to achieve this feat back-to-back in the modern era of the Champions League.
After defeating Monaco in February (3–2, 2–2), Chelsea in March (5–2, 3–0), Liverpool in April (2–0, 2–0) and Bayern Munich in May (5–4, 1–1), the Parisians secured victory over Arsenal (1-1, 4-3 after penalty shootout). Captain Marquinhos – the most-capped player in Paris Saint-Germain’s history in European competitions with 122 appearances – and his teammates capped off a historic season by winning the club’s second Champions League title. This latest title brings the number of trophies won by PSG since its inception to 60, including 42 since the arrival of Qatar Sports Investments in 2011.
Having already been crowned French champions for the fifth consecutive time, Paris Saint-Germain have also become the second team in the 21st century to reach two consecutive Champions League finals whilst winning their domestic league, following in the footsteps of Manchester United (2008–09). Under the guidance of Luis Enrique – now the most successful manager in the club’s history, with 12 trophies – the Rouge et Bleu have left their mark on this European campaign, scoring 45 goals in the Champions League, an average of 2.8 goals per match. Only FC Barcelona in 1999-2000 (45) have done better in a single edition of the competition.
At the end of a historic season, Paris Saint-Germain has confirmed its identity more than ever: an ambitious, demanding, spectacular and resolutely team-oriented style of football. Under the guidance of Luis Enrique, the Paris Saint-Germain players have demonstrated a spirit driven by hard work, solidarity, discipline and the desire to push themselves to the limit. These values reflect the Club’s ambition and fuel the momentum built up throughout the season.
Paris Saint-Germain has particularly stood out for the diversity of its attacking options. With Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (10 goals), Ousmane Dembélé (8 goals), Vitinha (6 goals) and Désiré Doué (5 goals), the now two-time reigning European champions are the team with the most players to have scored five or more goals in the Champions League in 2025–2026. The capital club have also stood out for the impact of its substitutes, with 29 goals scored by players coming on as substitutes across all competitions – the highest total among teams in Europe’s top five leagues.
With an average age of 24 years and 221 days, Paris Saint-Germain have become the third-youngest winners in Champions League history this season, behind the Parisian side that were crowned champions last year. The capital club has also confirmed the central role of its academy in its sporting project, with four home-grown players – Quentin Ndjantou, Senny Mayulu, Ibrahim Mbaye and Warren Zaïre-Emery – having played in the Champions League this season, a record for Paris Saint-Germain in a single European campaign since 2018–2019.
With five trophies won this season – the UEFA Super Cup, the Intercontinental Cup, the Trophée des Champions, the French League title and the Champions League – Luis Enrique’s side have enjoyed one of the greatest seasons in the club’s history. This European triumph adds to the Champions League title won in 2025 against Inter Milan (5-0), as well as the Cup Winners’ Cup secured in 1996 against Rapid Vienna (1-0), confirming more than ever Paris Saint-Germain’s status among the world’s greatest football clubs.
“This second consecutive Champions League title is more than just a historic moment. It marks the beginning of a legend for our club, for French football, and for our city. It is the culmination of a remarkable team effort, led by Luis Enrique, the players, and the coaching staff. I am extremely proud of our team, of its maturity, its character, and the way it has represented Paris Saint-Germain throughout this European campaign. I would also like to thank Luis Campos and all the club’s teams, who work behind the scenes every day to make all of this possible. Tonight, our thoughts go out to our fans: the 18,000 people who made the trip to Budapest, those gathered at the Parc des Princes in Paris, and all the Rouge & Bleu supporters across France and around the world. We share this title with them.”
To celebrate this second consecutive European title, Paris Saint-Germain is unveiling an exclusive collector’s edition of the 2025–2026 home shirt, featuring two stars and the coat of arms of Paris on the back, symbolising the deep bond between the Club and its city. A range of new collections, designed for all Rouge & Bleu supporters, will also mark this historic victory.
