Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca, who is set to compete with PSG for the championship in the final, praised his opponent as `Enrique and PSG are everyone's role models.' Chelsea beat Pluminense and PSG beat Real Madrid in the semifinals to reach the expanded and reorganized Club World Cup final.

PSG, which won the French League Ang, Cup de France, Trophy de Champion and the European Champions League in the 2024-2025 season, is aiming for five gold medals.
