“These are the two best teams in Europe, even if Arsenal have also had a great season,” Enrique told reporters.

“In terms of consistency, maybe Bayern are a little bit above us. But we have shown that no team is better than us.”

The Parisians booked their place in the last four by eliminating Chelsea and Liverpool in the previous rounds.

“It is a real pleasure, and it is deserved. You need to be ambitious to get to this stage, and I think we are. We still want to go that bit further,” Enrique added.

PSG and Bayern have already clashed three times since the start of last season.

Bayern won 1-0 in the Champions League group stage in November 2024, PSG triumphed 2-0 in a Club World Cup quarter-final in July 2025, and Bayern claimed a 2-1 victory in Paris in November 2025.
