Al-Khelaifi has run the club since 2011 and has been intent on winning the Champions League, something that was finally achieved after 14 years via a 5-0 thrashing of Inter in Munich on Saturday. He was clearly emotional during Sunday’s victory parade in Paris and appeared to be fighting back tears during an interview with TF1.
PSG spent several years chasing European glory by signing some of the biggest names in the sport, including Lionel Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe. They have achieved success having moved on from that trio, however, with manager Luis Enrique credited for building a well-rounded team. Al-Khelaifi said to TF1: “This year was very special. If we hadn’t won before, it might not have been like this. With everything we’ve done for 14 years. It was very important for Paris, for France, we don’t just talk about PSG but about France, we have the French flag on our jersey. We’re proud of that. I slept with the Cup yesterday. I told myself that maybe it was a dream and when I woke up I said to myself no, it’s true.”
