Paper talk: PSG v Arsenal, idolised Kvaratskhelia, Luis Enrique | OneFootball

This Thursday, May 28, the French press (from a sporting point of view) focused on Paris Saint-Germain and the 2025-2026 Champions League final this Saturday against Arsenal at the Puskas Arena (kick-off at 6 p.m., broadcast on M6 and Canal+). Also worth noting is the love from the supporters won over by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (25-year-old forward), as well as coach Luis Enrique’s success as the leader of the squad and staff.

Le Parisien –

L’Equipe –

Paris are coming into this Champions League final with a certain confidence, and the supporters are ready to give everything to push the team toward a second straight European title. However, they must not think they have already won. There is a very strong opponent to respect. But the atmosphere will be great, and PSG have reasons to believe in victory.

Among them is Kvaratskhelia, a superb footballing blend of elegance on the ball and determination in duels. He puts to rest the idea that a player has to conserve energy defensively in order to perform offensively. You may, perhaps, have to accept not playing the full 90 minutes. Although he does not always need to come off. In any case, he is the kind of player people love to watch in football. And he could well shine again in this final.

All of this within a strong collective, confident in its style of play and made up of players ready to fight for the group. It is a major success for coach Luis Enrique, who has managed to maintain high standards within his team while preserving humility and the idea that the collective always matters more than anything else. Let us hope his formula brings another win, and with style if possible, this Saturday.
