Former Bayern Munich winger Franck Ribery has endorsed three clubs to win the Champions League this season, including Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).
When asked who he thinks would win the Champions League in 2022, Ribery said: "Bayern Munich, Liverpool, and possibly PSG are my Champions League picks. They have terrific players and good teams."
In the 2012-13 season, Ribery and Bayern Munich won the famous European Cup. At Wembley Stadium, they defeated Borussia Dortmund in the final.
Before joining Fiorentina in 2019, the right-footed winger won several more trophies with Bayern Munich. Until 2014, he was a member of the French national squad.
Taking a look at Ribery's Champions League favourites
Let's start with Bayern Munich, his old team. The Bavarian behemoths are still going strong. Despite the arrival of a new management last summer, Julian Nagelsmann has settled in like a duck to water.
The gifted group has willingly accepted his pressing football philosophy, and they have run amok in Germany this season. Munich are on their approach to capturing yet another Bundesliga crown, barring a few unexpected setbacks.
Their Champions League ambitions are also in the hands of Robert Lewandowski, the FIFA Best Player for 2021. The Polish international is on fire in front of goal and might lead them back to Europe's pinnacle, like he did in the 2019-20 season.
Liverpool was Ribery's second club. The Reds have been in excellent form in recent weeks and are currently in the running for the quadruple this season.
If they can overcome Chelsea in the final, they will have a chance to win the Carabao Cup this weekend. After a run of six straight victories, Liverpool has re-entered the Premier League title fight. The Reds have won all seven of their European games so far this season. Mohamed Salah's outstanding goal-scoring form this season could possibly be the determining factor in Liverpool winning the Champions League.
Finally, we've arrived at PSG. The Parisian behemoths are one of Europe's most decorated clubs. PSG's front three of Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Kylian Mbappe have the ability to smash any team on their day, making them a real threat in Europe.
