In addition to savoring the first PSG title in the Champions League, the Parisian president, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, clearly traced the way for the future of the club.

Paris Saint-Germain finally registered its name in the Pantheon of the Great of Europe. Winner of the Champions League this Saturday against Inter Milan (5-0), the French champion won his first title in C1.

This coronation, long awaited since the arrival of Qatar Sports Investments (QSI) at the head of the club in 2011, filled President Nasser Al-Khelaïfi with joy. The Qatari leader, who has known all the great Parisian disillusions in recent years, has taken advantage of the festivities to convey a strong message to those who have continued to criticize PSG and Ligue 1.

Al-Khelaïfi sets a new objective at PSG

“This year was very special, we started with difficulties, everyone doubted us, criticized us. For years, people have criticized us, and there, many people did not trust our project, our philosophy, our investments. Today, we have proven that we are here, we are champion. Honestly, I don't believe it. Winning 5-0 is incredible is a dream. (…) Today, we are not a Parisian club, we are a French club. We defend the flag of France, we deserve, there are many big clubs in France, it is a top league, everyone criticizes France by saying that we have no quality, but we have shown today that we have great players “he said on Canal+.

And the owner of the red and blue does not intend to stop there. According to him, the Parisian team can already aim for a second star. “The next goal? Win again! When you start with a star, it is sure that you want to try to have another. It is not easy. There was 14 years of work. I want to win the Club World Cup, I want to win the Champions League once again, that's the mentality. We are the 2nd youngest team in the history of the C1 in the final, we are on the right path. We build for the future ”, concluded Nak.
