“It was very close. I’m very proud of my players, we had a great season, a great tournament here. We have everything we need to win, but that’s football,” he continued.

“We will work hard to win next season. We have more confidence than ever. I promise we will win the Champions League,” said Al-Khelaifi.

“We will come back one day, we will work for that. It is not easy to reach the final, but we will do all we can to win this trophy,” he concluded.

Based on Al-Khelaifi’s statement, it is likely that PSG will return to spending on a large scale players in the transfer market to strengthen their squad. Moreover, PSG is certain to lose Thiago Silva.

The contract period for the mainstay defender who also serves as the captain of the PSG team is because the article has expired. Therefore, PSG at least need another great defender to guard the heart of their defense.
