Bayern Munich have been dealt a fresh injury setback with the news that Alphonso Davies is set for another spell on the sidelines. Head coach Vincent Kompany confirmed the blow during his pre-match press conference ahead of the Bundesliga trip to Wolfsburg.
Bayern Munich’s European dreams ended in heartbreak as they were outclassed by Paris Saint-Germain across two legs of their Champions League semi-final. While the Bavarians have enjoyed domestic dominance, the defeat has prompted a scathing review of Vincent Kompany’s tactical approach and player selection on the highest stage.
Premier League legend Nicky Butt has warned Arsenal that Paris Saint-Germain will be almost impossible to beat when the two sides meet in the Champions League final later this month. Butt believes Mikel Arteta must consider dropping striker Viktor Gyokeres in favour of more pace to exploit the French champions' defensive vulnerabilities on the counter-attack.
Lothar Matthaus has urged Vincent Kompany to stick with his attacking philosophy despite Bayern Munich’s elimination from the Champions League by Paris Saint-Germain. The German icon believes Bayern’s entertaining style should not change despite defensive concerns exposed by their 6-5 aggregate defeat in the semi-finals.
Paris Saint-Germain head coach Luis Enrique curiously absented himself from his own 56th birthday celebrations despite organising a lavish dinner for his squad at a chic Parisian restaurant. The Spaniard opted to ghost his players just 24 hours after leading the Ligue 1 giants to a second consecutive Champions League final.
Apart from the UEFA Champions League final, you cannot buy tickets for the Champions League directly through UEFA itself.
Instead, they are sold club-by-club among the teams competing in this year's edition. You must visit the individual club’s website for the fixture you want to attend and buy your seat from there.
Capacity is always limited for these Champions League knockout matches, and demand often exceeds available allocation.
Will I be able to buy Champions League tickets through secondary sites?
In addition, fans can purchase seats on the secondary market. StubHub is one of the leading retailers for those seeking to buy tickets through alternative channels.
Where is the 2026 Champions League Final being played?
