'We'll be back next year with the third one': Dembele says PSG will go again in 2026/27

"Thanks to all of you for your support. We will be back next year with the third one," Dembele told the crowd as they danced to Daft Punk's "One More Time", while the players displayed the trophy they had secured against Arsenal on Saturday.

The atmosphere was relaxed after light rain gave way to sunshine, in contrast to the overnight scenes when post-match violence across the capital left more than 200 people injured and one person dead.

Qatari club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi encouraged fans to maintain the positive mood. "Please celebrate peacefully tonight. It is very important to protect our city," he said.

PSG players gathered on the Champs de Mars, a vast open space beneath the Eiffel Tower, before an official visit to President Emmanuel Macron at the Elysee Palace.

Fan Mathias Oumraou told Reuters he had to attend the parade after what he described as the best night of his life in Paris. Another supporter, Cheyenne Barbachou, said she could scarcely believe the back-to-back victory. "It's incredible," she said.
