Kylian Mbappe, Neymar and former Paris Saint-Germain stars have congratulated the Ligue 1 giants after they clinched their first-ever UEFA Champions League title.
PSG made history by recording the biggest margin ever scored in the Champions League final with a dominant 5-0 thrashing of Inter Milan, to become the first French team since Marseille in 1993 to win Europe’s elite club competition.
PSG President Nasser Al-Khelaifi’s vision has been fully realized with PSG triumphing in quite a moment for Paris and French soccer.
