Match of the Week Champions League: Financial head-to-head Paris Saint-Germain v Real Sociedad

Real Sociedad, struggling in LaLiga, faces a tough Champions League knockout round against Paris Saint-Germain at Parc Des Princes.

Paris Saint-Germain seeks to overcome their recent history of exiting the Champions League in the round of 16 in their pursuit of a first ever title.

Financially, PSG's wage bill is eight times higher than Sociedad's - and it shows in on the bottom line for PSG which is marked by accumulating losses.

Sociedad's squad value exceeded €500 million in February 2024, significantly boosted by Japanese prospect Takefusa Kubo's rising valuation.
