Paris Saint-Germain ’s Champions League troubles only appear to be getting worse after seeing their latest campaign once again ended at the last-16 stage.
The French giants fell to Bundesligsa champions Bayern Munich - losing both legs to suffer a 3-0 aggregate defeat. Despite the huge outlay by the club’s Qatari owners, that means that PSG’s best finish is just one final appearance, that game also ending in defeat to the German juggernaut.
PSG’s current malaise in Europe is baffling given the great expense that they have gone to in an effort to secure a Champions League title. The arrivals of Kylian Mbappe and Neymar in the summer of 2017 for what would be a combined £400m took their already lofty levels of spending to new heights.
