The club first secured the UEFA Champions League title in Budapest, defeating Arsenal in a penalty shootout following a 1–1 draw. In the final, Kai Havertz scored early for Arsenal, while Ousmane Dembélé converted a penalty for PSG after a foul on Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. Arsenal missed two penalties from Eberechi Eze and Gabriel during the shootout, marking Luis Enrique’s first Champions League trophy. PSG continued their winning streak by defeating Aston Villa 2–1 to win the 2026 UEFA Super Cup at the Red Bull Arena in Salzburg, Austria.
