After speaking to Canal+, PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi came to introduce himself to journalists in the mixed zone. And inevitably, this new qualification for the Champions League final delights the Parisian president who has spoken widely about this sporting success.
“It’s magnificent. We continued to write a great story in this same stadium. We did it last year, we’re doing it tonight. When we came yesterday, I said that I felt a very good feeling in this stadium. A back-to-back is something incredible. It was shown that these were not 23 players but 23 warriors. We could have scored again, but we want to continue. Calm down a little, but we inevitably think about the final. This year’s or last year’s? It’s different. It’s difficult to come back. We have come a long way. Everyone said it wasn’t the same team as last season. But everyone showed that we are a great team, not just last year or this year, but for the next 5 years. We have a young team. We want to continue. We have the best supporters in the world, I’ve only heard of them. They sang the Marseillaise, they are supporters of France. We are proud to be a French club, to represent France. It’s magnificent. We want to continue to raise the French flag high during the final. The extension of Luis Enrique? It’s a good time to celebrate and think about the final. We also hope to finish the championship next week because Ligue 1 is important for us. And afterward, the coach is the best and he is very happy here, like us too.”
