Following their 0-2 defeat at Barcelona, Sweden striker, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, has tipped the Catalans to clinch this year's edition of the champions league title.
Neymar scored twice in each half of the game to help the Luis Enrique side to a 5-1 victory on aggregate to progress to the semi final of the European championship.
The first leg had ended a 3-1 with at the Parc des Princes in favour of the Catalans, beating PSG 3-1.
Ibrahimovic had no complaints about the result, conceding that Luis Enrique's men were a class above PSG.
"We have to be realistic, Barcelona were simply better than us," the former Blaugrana attacker told reporters in Catalunya. "They were the better team and deserved their win.
"They will probably go on to win the Champions League now."
PSG's quarter-final exit means they will have to wait at least another season for European glory, but Ibrahimovic thinks it could very well take them even longer to conquer the continent.
"As for PSG, it is not possible to win the Champions League on the short term," the Sweden international added. "We have taken several big steps forward in recent years and were eliminated by a superb team.
"But it is not worth lying about it or hiding behind excuses. Reality is that PSG are not at the level to win the Champions League yet."
