PSG v Arsenal – Luis Enrique’s likely line-up with Hakimi | OneFootball

This Wednesday, Paris Saint-Germain will face Arsenal at the Puskas Arena in Budapest in the final of the 2025-2026 Champions League (kick-off at 6 p.m., broadcast on Canal+ and M6). This Thursday, L’Equipe put forward a likely Parisian lineup.

Kvaratskhelia – Dembélé – Doué

Ruiz – Vitinha – Neves

Mendes – Pacho – Marquinhos – Hakimi

Safonov.

A perfectly credible lineup, with only a very slight doubt. It concerns Warren Zaïre-Emery, the 20-year-old midfielder who is enjoying a very fine season. But he is up against the return to form of Fabian Ruiz (30), who remains more creative and more of a “master of the tempo” than he is. Valuable weapons against an Arsenal side that is difficult to break down.

At right-back, Achraf Hakimi (27) is expected to be ready. He is one of the best in the world in his position (perhaps even number 1), so it is hard to take his place. Even though Zaïre-Emery has been interesting in that role, he remains a less attacking option. Whereas PSG could very well need Hakimi’s runs and his knack for decisive actions to turn the match. Starting the academy product is still not impossible, but not really likely.
