Paris Saint Germain was supposed to become the most dominant team in the world this season. Their transfer window in the summer was one of the greatest windows of all time. The club signed the likes of Lionel Messi, Sergio Ramos, and Gianluigi Donnarumma, among other players.

However, it all went wrong in the UEFA Champions League, as the club was eliminated in the Round-of-16 by a rampant Real Madrid.
