Thierry Henry will present the Champions League trophy before Saturday's final between Arsenal and PSG.

Le Parisien reports that the Gunners legend will share the honor with Presnel Kimpembe.

Kimpembe, a PSG stalwart, confirmed his selection to the French outlet on Wednesday.

Both clubs are following tradition by having former players deliver the trophy to the pitch.

Last year, Javier Pastore and Javier Zanetti performed the same role before PSG defeated Inter Milan in Munich.

According to Kimpembe, accepting this responsibility felt special. "It's a great honor to represent Paris Saint-Germain in this Champions League final," he told reporters.

The defender expressed hope that the gesture would benefit his team and supporters. "I hope it'll bring luck to the team and to all Parisian supporters," Kimpembe noted.
