Luis Enrique has unveiled a formidable Paris Saint-Germain F.C. squad for Saturday’s UEFA Champions League final against Arsenal F.C. in Budapest.

The French champions head into the final with a star-studded group featuring Ousmane Dembélé, who is coming off a remarkable season that reportedly earned him the 2025 Ballon d'Or, alongside Georgian winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and midfield maestro Vitinha.

PSG secured their place in the final after overcoming FC Bayern Munich in the semi-finals, while Arsenal booked their ticket by eliminating Atlético de Madrid.

The Parisians will also take confidence from their recent European record against Arsenal, having defeated the Gunners 3-1 on aggregate in a previous Champions League knockout meeting.

Opinion: PSG’s Squad Depth Could Be the Difference

Looking at the names available to Luis Enrique, PSG appear to possess one major advantage over Arsenal: depth.

While Arsenal’s starting XI can compete with almost any team in Europe, PSG have match-winners spread across every area of the pitch. Players such as Dembélé, Kvaratskhelia, Barcola, Ramos, and Doué give the French side multiple attacking options capable of changing the game.

The midfield trio of Vitinha, João Neves, and Fabián Ruiz may also prove decisive. Their ability to control possession while still creating chances has been one of PSG’s biggest strengths throughout the campaign.

However, finals are rarely won on squad lists alone. Arsenal arrive with confidence after winning the Premier League and have built a reputation for defensive discipline under Mikel Arteta.

The key battle may come down to whether Arsenal can contain PSG’s pace and creativity in transition. If the Gunners succeed, the game could become a tactical chess match. If PSG’s attackers find space early, Arsenal could face a very difficult evening.

On paper, PSG may have the deeper squad. But in a Champions League final, mentality, execution, and moments of brilliance often matter more than reputations. Saturday’s showdown promises to be a fascinating contest between two teams chasing European glory.
