Paris police have detained dozens of people after violence disrupted celebrations of Paris Saint-Germain’s second Champions League title win.

A group allegedly tried to storm a police station in the French capital.

Fans began celebrating in Paris after the final whistle earlier in the evening in Budapest, Hungary, where PSG won by beating Arsenal on penalties in a dramatic final.

Dozens of fans marched along the avenues near the Arc de Triomphe, with some setting off flares and blaring car horns.

About 20,000 people gathered on the Champs-Élysées, with police working to contain the crowd.

The Paris police prefecture said smaller groups caused disturbances in various locations, with some vandalising shops and setting fires, including multiple cars being set ablaze.

One police officer was injured.

Those who attempted to storm a police station in the posh 8th Arrondissement neighbourhood were dispersed, police said.

It said that by 10pm local time, 45 people were taken into custody.

The main ring road surrounding Paris was briefly blockaded by a crowd before police dispersed it.

Police said a bakery and a restaurant were damaged.

Officers also contained about 1,000 people gathered near the PSG stadium in the 16th Arrondissement and cleared barricades made from bicycles.

In May last year, police made more than 500 arrests across France following PSG’s first European title.

Paris was on high alert, with 8,000 police officers deployed across the city.

Two people died, about 200 were injured and more than 500 arrests were made across France immediately following the 2025 victory.
