Only three English clubs have captured both the domestic top‑flight league title and the European Cup or Champions League in the same season.

Those clubs are Liverpool (in 1976‑77 and 1983‑84), Manchester United (in 1998‑99 and 2007‑08), and Manchester City (in 2022‑23).

On Saturday evening, newly crowned Premier League champions Arsenal will try to join that exclusive group when they face Paris Saint‑Germain in the Champions League final.

The Gunners will meet the French Ligue 1 giants in the Champions League final in Budapest this weekend.

Both teams earned their places in the final after defeating Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich, respectively, in the semi‑finals.

Meanwhile, PSG is attempting to become the first club other than Real Madrid to defend the trophy in the Champions League era (1992‑93 onwards).
