PSG made history of their own, becoming the first side to retain the Champions League trophy since Real Madrid’s remarkable three-peat.

Speaking to TNT, former Arsenal midfielder Wilshire admitted it ‘will take a while’ for his former side to get over this but backed them for future glory.

“It will take a while to get over, but I'm pretty sure it's not going to take another 20 years to get to another final with Mikel in charge,” he said.

“I fancied us (Arsenal) for penalties but it's a hard one to take.”
