As we approach the highly anticipated final of the 2025 UEFA Champions League, predictions are in full swing. One voice standing out is that of Oscar-winning actress and sports entrepreneur Natalie Portman.
In an interview with Canal+, Portman asserted confidently, “PSG is going to win! They are in exceptional form right now!” Without a doubt, she is placing her bets on Paris Saint-Germain to triumph over Inter Milan in Munich on May 31.
Portman’s stance carries weight; she is not just a casual fan but a co-owner of Angel City FC in the NWSL and a passionate supporter of football.
Her loyalty to PSG runs deep; at the 2024 Ballon d’Or ceremony in Paris, she mentioned that her whole family roots for the French team.
“My son teaches me everything I know about football. He believes that the departure of big stars has united the young players in a way we haven’t seen before. So I have faith in their success!
Portman’s endorsement comes at a pivotal moment as PSG is experiencing a significant transformation, highlighted by their solid 3–1 aggregate semi-final victory over Arsenal. The Paris club is now eager to capture their first UCL trophy, which has eluded them for years.
