Paris qualified for the final after eliminating Arsenal 3-1 on aggregate, winning 1-0 at the Emirates Stadium before repeating the victory 2-1 at the Parc des Princes.

Inter’s qualification was the most exciting in the Champions League in years, coming at the expense of Barcelona. The first leg in the Catalan city ended 3-3, before the Nerazzurri won 4-3 after extra time at their home stadium.

An interesting irony is that the two teams (Paris and Inter) have never met before in a European match or official competition.

The Allianz Arena match will be the first between the two teams, both of whom are hoping to end the season with the European title.

The last friendly between the two clubs was in August 2023, during their pre-season tour of Japan. Inter won 2-1.

Paris hopes to wear the star on their jersey by winning their first title and their second in French football history, following Marseille’s 1993 triumph.

Inter, meanwhile, is dreaming of their fourth title, having won in 1964, 1965, and 2010.

Inter last qualified for the final in 2023, losing 1-0 to Manchester City. Paris reached their only final in 2020, losing to Bayern Munich by the same score.

The Italian newspaper La Stampa reported that Klopp’s name has been surprisingly linked with the position of Roma’s successor to veteran Claudio Ranieri.

Ranieri will leave AS Roma at the end of this season after taking over as the team’s manager on a temporary basis midway through the season.

The newspaper added, “An agreement has been reached with Klopp, and this is the result of a decision that had been under consideration for some time.”

It continued, “The German coach had previously given his word to another club linked with a change of ownership, but when that move failed, he did not hesitate to take on the AS Roma job, giving his approval to coach the capital club.”

The newspaper noted that AS Roma will undergo a comprehensive transformation not only within the technical staff, but also in terms of the team’s roster for the new season and its signings. Klopp will serve as the team’s coach, followed by Ranieri as the club’s senior advisor.

According to the Spanish program “El Chiringuito”: “Rodrigo is aware that he may be among the names Real Madrid will sacrifice this summer in order to achieve financial balance, but he has set one condition for leaving the Santiago Bernabéu: a move to Manchester City, under the leadership of coach Pep Guardiola.”

The program noted: “Rodrygo intends to move to Manchester City if the team fails to qualify for the Champions League next season.”

It added: “Rodrygo will wait until Xabi Alonso takes over as coach of the team to see if he will rely on him, especially since the Spanish coach is implementing a 3-5-2 formation with Leverkusen, a system that may not suit him.”

It’s worth noting that Rodrygo has not appeared for Real Madrid since being substituted at halftime of the Copa del Rey final on April 26, amid widespread uncertainty surrounding his condition.

Spanish radio station Radio Marca reported: “Rodrygo Goes, who hasn’t played a single minute in El Clásico, is not only considering leaving Real Madrid, but also doesn’t want to play for Real Madrid again.”

It added: “Rodrygo feels marginalized after the media hype surrounding Jude Bellingham’s brilliance, and also after the arrival of Kylian Mbappé, which has led to a rift between him and his compatriot Vinicius Junior.”

It concluded: “The Brazilian striker is extremely angry and is secluded at home. His future now depends on the decision of Xabi Alonso, the potential coach of Los Blancos. However, all indications indicate that he will be one of the names Real Madrid will put up for sale this summer.”

It’s worth noting that Rodrygo Goes has previously been linked with moves to Manchester City and Arsenal during the upcoming summer transfer window.

PA Media reported that Rashford suffered a knee ligament injury in the build-up to the FA Cup semi-final defeat to Crystal Palace, and Emery announced that Rashford will be out for several weeks.

With four rounds of matches remaining, beginning with Fulham’s visit to Villa Park on Saturday, there are concerns that Rashford will not play again before his loan from Manchester United ends.

However, Emery raised the possibility of Rashford returning in time to help Villa achieve their goal of qualifying for the Champions League.

Emery said: “Regarding tomorrow’s match, Rashford will not be available. He is working to return as soon as possible, but it will still be a few weeks before he is available for the rest of the season.”

He added, “Of course, there are four weeks left, and we hope he plays one or two games with us. We hope he helps us. And of course, he’s recovering. I want to see him happy. He plays, achieves our goal, and then, of course, we’ll talk about everything.”

Nottingham Forest’s loss to Brentford on Thursday boosted Aston Villa’s hopes of securing a Champions League spot. Aston Villa (57 points) could draw level on points with Forest (60 points) and Chelsea (60 points) with a win.

Guardiola renewed his contract with Manchester City last November for two additional seasons. He intends to step away from football after the end of his time with the club, just as he did with Barcelona when he took a year off before coaching Bayern Munich in 2013.

Guardiola told ESPN Brasil: “After my contract with Manchester City ends, I will stop coaching. I’m sure of it. I don’t know if I will retire, but I will take a break.”

He added: “In the career of a coach, there are good and bad. The important thing is that the good ones are remembered for a longer period. There are new challenges as a coach, and I don’t know what will happen in the future. In the end, it doesn’t matter.”

He continued: “It has been a year full of lessons learned for me personally. I knew we would fall at some point, but we fell a lot.”

He concluded: “Now we have to sit together, learn and try to understand what we need to offer in the future.”

Barcelona, ​​who have been performing exceptionally well this season under German coach Hansi Flick, are seeking to secure a place in the final early in the first leg by securing a comfortable result that will facilitate their progress in the second leg. This is in line with the team’s quest to win the title, which has not been won since 2015, especially after the early exits of most of the title contenders.

The team enters the match in high spirits after defeating Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey final, and is also on the verge of clinching the La Liga title.

Barcelona will be without Robert Lewandowski due to an injury he sustained in the La Liga match against Celta Vigo.

Inter Milan, on the other hand, are not in their best mental state. After sharing the league lead with Napoli until Week 33, Week 34 saw the Italian giants lose their lead after a slump against Roma, which left them three points clear at the top of the table. This came just days after losing the Coppa Italia semi-final to Milan, so the Champions League represents the team’s last chance to salvage the season.

Inter hopes to continue their impressive form in the Champions League, especially after defeating Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals 4-3 on aggregate. This gives Inzaghi and his team a morale boost to defeat Barcelona.

The two teams have played five previous matches, indicating Barcelona’s relative superiority, with two wins, one win for Inter Milan, and two draws.

Arsenal vs PSG prediction
As good as PSG have been since the turn of the year, Arsenal are the one side that have had their number this season and the 2-0 win is looking more impressive as the weeks pass by.

The French side very nearly crumbled inside a hostile atmosphere at Villa Park and if the Gunners can recreate the noise and energy on display inside the Emirates against Real Madrid, they will have every chance of taking a first-leg lead to the Parc des Princes and then holding on in Paris.

Arsenal to win, 2-1.
