Paris Saint-Germain retained their Champions League title with a dramatic 4-3 penalty shootout victory over Arsenal after a 1-1 draw in Budapest. The French club's win secured their second consecutive European championship, stopping English clubs from completing a clean sweep of UEFA competitions this season.

The victory significantly strengthens PSG's financial position, with revenues projected to exceed €837 million for 2024-25. The club will receive approximately €139 million from UEFA for their campaign, offsetting declining French television rights. PSG's wage bill of €551 million remains among the highest in world football.

The win represents a strategic triumph for Qatar Sports Investments over US capital, contrasting PSG's new focus on developing younger talent like Kvaratskhelia with Arsenal's American ownership. This victory reinforces PSG's enterprise value, estimated at around €4.5 billion, and demonstrates the financial benefits of European football success.
