Why Ajibade will be supporting PSG against Arsenal in UCL final

Super Falcons captain, Rasheedat Ajibade, has arrived in Budapest, Hungary, to support Paris Saint-Germain ahead of their UEFA Champions League final clash with Arsenal on Saturday.

Ajibade announced her arrival in the Hungarian capital through a post on social media, where she shared her excitement about witnessing one of the biggest matches in European club football.

The Nigerian international, who has long been known as an Arsenal supporter, revealed that her allegiance for the final would be with PSG. Her decision is not surprising, considering she currently plays for the French club’s women’s team.

In a message posted on X, Ajibade wrote: “Off to Budapest. Supporting the boys in the Champions League final. Please don’t ask me which side I’m on, my jersey speaks for itself. Allez Paris.”

The 26-year-old joined PSG Women on a free transfer last summer after ending her successful spell with Spanish club Atletico Madrid Femenino. Since moving to France, she has settled into life at the club and developed a strong connection with the PSG family.

The UEFA Champions League final is expected to attract millions of viewers worldwide, with both PSG and Arsenal aiming to make history. While Arsenal are chasing European glory after an impressive campaign, PSG are hoping to finally secure the prestigious trophy and crown a remarkable season.

Ajibade’s presence in Budapest highlights the support PSG are receiving from across their wider football community as they prepare for one of the most important matches in the club’s history.

The Super Falcons star is expected to be among thousands of fans inside the stadium cheering the French champions on.
