PSG vs Arsenal: When and how to watch 2026 Champions League final in Nigeria?

French Ligue 1 Champions Paris Saint-Germain will play against English Premier League winners Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League final tomorrow evening, Soccernet.ng reports.

The final pits two Champions against each other, with Mikel Arteta hoping to guide Arsenal to their first-ever Champions League title, while PSG look to become the first European team to win the UCL since Real Madrid in 2017.

For Nigerian fans, the clash carries huge emotional weight. Arsenal remain one of the most supported clubs in the country, while a fraction of those fans will cheer PSG, since Jay-Jay Okocha played for the French side.
