That’s it, the Champions League has finally resumed its rights and after Real Madrid or Liverpool this Tuesday, it is PSG who will return to the most prestigious competition this Wednesday. For the capital club, it will start with the reception of Girona at the Parc des Princes. Obviously, the big question is whether this year will finally be the right one or not for PSG…

In 2011, Qatar took back control of the PSG. Since that date, hundreds of millions of euros have been spent to recruit the biggest stars in the world of football with one goal in mind: winning the Champions League. If PSG has invited itself to the table of the greatest with its checkbook, on the pitch, it is still not that. Indeed, the capital club is still and always in search of its first Champions League. The Cup with the big ears thus flees Parisbut until when?

The first Champions League for PSG?

Last season, led by Luis EnriqueTHE PSG had managed to reach the last four of the Champions League, failing at the gates of the final against Borussia Dortmund. A final step that the capital club has only managed to reach once in the Qatari era, it was in 2020 and the PSG had then bowed to the Bayern Munich. This season, Luis Enrique obviously wants to do better than in the previous season. But will he succeed? Paris no longer has today Kylian Mbappébut may have gained a real collective. Indeed, since the beginning of the season, the Parisians have made a strong impression in Ligue 1 with a united team, but we know that the deciding factor will obviously be the Champions League and it starts this Wednesday against Girona.

Beware of the competition

THE PSG is obviously one of those teams that can claim to win the Champions League this season. But the competition will be fierce on the European scene. We will obviously have to count on the real Madridexercise specialist, title holder and strengthened this summer by the arrival of Kylian Mbappé. In addition to the Merengue, we will also have to count on the Manchester City of Pep Guardiola or the FC Barcelona ofHansi Flickwho has impressed since the start of the season. Not to mention Liverpool or even the Bayern Munich

So, will PSG win the Champions League this season?
