Paris Saint-Germain, under the guidance of Luis Enrique, has achieved the remarkable feat of retaining its title in the Champions League, joining Real Madrid in history. Stay with us to find out where PSG stands compared to the greatest teams of the 21st century.
PSG triumphed over Arsenal in Budapest, following a 1-1 draw and a penalty shootout won 4-3. Only Real Madrid has managed such a feat twice in the history of the competition, between 1956-1960 and 2016-2018. Other clubs like AC Milan, Liverpool, and Bayern Munich have also enjoyed success in the Champions League, but not in the 21st century.
Looking at contemporary giants, Manchester City, led by Pep Guardiola, made a significant impact between 2018 and 2024 with domination in England and a Champions League victory in 2023. Zidane's Real Madrid (2016-2018) also shone, winning three Champions League titles with iconic players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema.
Bayern Munich, under Jupp Heynckes (2011-2013), and Guardiola's FC Barcelona also left an indelible mark. Where does PSG fit into this elite? The numbers speak for themselves.
