Paris Saint-Germain’s Fan Token (PSG) is seeing a surge in capital inflows ahead of this year’s Champions League final.
Specifically, the cryptocurrency’s market cap has jumped 60.94%, climbing from $16 million on April 27 to $25.75 million as of press time on May 27, an increase of $9.75 million.
At the same time, the token’s price has experienced a significant boost, rising over 35% in the past month and trading at $2.80 at the time of reporting.
The rally began gaining momentum after PSG eliminated Arsenal in the UCL semi-finals to secure their spot in the 2025 UEFA Champions League final.
The French giants clinched a 3-1 aggregate victory over the Premier League side, marking PSG’s second appearance in a UCL final, their first since the 2020 loss to Bayern Munich.
The French champions will be facing off against Italy’s Inter Milan.
While PSG’s token has generally followed broader cryptocurrency market trends, this recent momentum seems fueled by fan excitement and investor confidence.

On the other hand, Inter Milan’s Fan Token (INTER) has also attracted investors’ interest. INTER has surged almost 50% over the past month and, as of press time, was trading at $1.31 with a market cap of $12.15 million.
The upcoming showdown in Munich, the first UCL final since 2004 without a club from England, Spain, or Germany, is expected to attract global attention, potentially driving even more demand for PSG’s fan token.
Historically, fan tokens tend to reflect their teams’ on-field success. As reported by Finbold, the cryptocurrency market is already betting big on the French domestic league champions.
It’s worth remembering that fan tokens often experience a post-final correction, especially for the losing side or if the broader crypto market pulls back.
