PARIS (AP) — Paris Saint-Germain remains on course for a historic club treble after reaching the Champions League semifinals this week.
Kylian Mbappé and his teammates can dream of playing the final at Wembley Stadium on June 1. Mbappé can imagine himself climbing the long stairs before raising aloft Europe’s premier club trophy for the first time since PSG’s foundation in 1970, in what would effectively be his last game before leaving the club.
“Of course I want to win the Champions League with PSG,” Mbappé said after PSG knocked out Barcelona in the quarterfinals on Tuesday. “We have a great side and we’ll do all we can to get to Wembley.”
But before scaling such heights, there are domestic matters to take care of.
Starting with clinching a record-extending 12th French title.
PSG has a 10-point lead and can take a step closer to the title on Sunday with a home win against Lyon at Parc des Princes. But it will face a Lyon team full of confidence under coach Pierre Sage, one of the success stories of the season along with Brest.
