Paris Saint-Germain are set for a blockbuster showdown after head coach Luis Enrique unveiled a strong matchday squad to face Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League final on Saturday in Budapest.
The French giants head into the final in confident mood following a dominant run that saw them eliminate Bayern Munich in the semi-finals, while Arsenal booked their place after knocking out Atlético Madrid.
All eyes will be on PSG’s attacking firepower, with 2025 Ballon d’Or winner Ousmane Dembélé leading the line alongside in-form winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and creative midfielder Vitinha.
Luis Enrique has blended experience and youth in his selection, with key names like Marquinhos, Achraf Hakimi, Nuno Mendes, and João Neves all included in a squad built for high-intensity European football.
The Parisians also carry a psychological edge into the final, having beaten Arsenal 3–1 on aggregate in last season’s semi-final meeting, a result that still lingers in the minds of both teams heading into this rematch on the biggest stage.
Arsenal, however, arrive in Budapest with renewed belief and a stronger tactical identity under pressure, setting up what is expected to be a tightly contested final rather than a one-sided affair.
PSG’s squad list reflects depth across all departments, with multiple attacking options including Gonçalo Ramos, Bradley Barcola, and Kang-In Lee, while Lucas Hernández and Lucas Beraldo add defensive stability.
With both clubs chasing European glory, the final promises a tactical battle between Luis Enrique’s structured attacking system and Arsenal’s disciplined, high-energy approach, with fine margins likely to decide the winner.
