PSG's participation in the UEFA Champions League has been notably positive since QSI took over the reins of the French club.

Following a resounding 4-1 aggregate victory against Real Sociedad, the Parisian club demonstrated a consolidated project with an average age in the match of only 23 years and 361 days, indicating optimism for the club's future.

PSG's UEFA Champions League performance

With a week left to know the pairings for the quarter-finals in the UCL, PSG has already achieved its seventh qualification in the top European competition since the 2011/12 season, showing quite admirable growth in its mere 53 years of existence since the founding of Paris Saint-Germain.

The edition in which PSG was closest to winning the Champions League was the 2019/20 season when it fell to Bayern Munich with a score of 0-1. With Luis Enrique at the helm, the French club seems to be more focused on this championship. While Ligue 1 in this season is getting closer to being conquered, in the UCL there is a quite difficult path where it is hoped that the youth of the club will achieve the ultimate glory with PSG.

As the anticipation builds for the quarter-final pairings in the UCL, PSG's remarkable journey in the competition deserves recognition. With their seventh qualification secured since the 2011/12 season, PSG has showcased impressive growth throughout its relatively short 53-year history.
