Nasser Al-Khelaïfi will sleep well, and in good company. Present in the mixed zone this Saturday evening after the historic PSG victory in the Champions League final against Inter Milan (5-0), the Parisian boss launched by confiding that he would sleep with the Champions League trophy. He also wanted to dedicate this victory to his mother, who died in 2019.

“This night, I sleep with the Champions League. It's a dream, I'm proud, I dedicate the victory to my mom who left. When she was there, she prayed every day to win this trophy. ” After 14 years of waiting, Paris finally did it.
