Interestingly, PSG won the Champions League for the first time in 2025, a year after Kylian Mbappe joined Real Madrid in the summer. Mbappe's arrival at Real Madrid has been notable for his individualistic approach to the game, which may have influenced his teammates.
The key to PSG's success in the Champions League was the signing of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia from Napoli in January 2025. Kvaratskhelia has developed into one of the world's top wingers and played a crucial role in the team's victory.
During the final, Kvaratskhelia won a penalty for Ousmane Dembele to score, and in his post-match interview, he emphasized the importance of prioritizing the team's needs over his own individual goals. He stated, "Even if I don’t get a goal or an assist, as long as I help the team… I don’t care. I play for the team, always."
Kvaratskhelia's mindset has become a cornerstone of the PSG squad, which has shifted from a team of self-centered players to a group of team players with a strong sense of unity and teamwork.
