Wait finally over: Paris Saint-Germain lifted the Champions League trophy after brushing aside Inter Milan in Munich

Paris Saint-Germain’s Champions League trophy parade has been given the green light to go ahead as planned on Sunday, but the number of fans in attendance will be capped.

Two people have died, 192 were injured and 559 arrested after the widespread trouble, with 491 of those occurring in Paris, where nine police offers were injured during clashes as cars were set ablaze and shop windows smashed.

However, local authorities have capped the number of fans allowed in attendance down the iconic Champs Elysees at 100,000, with a celebration featuring the PSG squad also set to go ahead outside their home stadium, the Parc des Princes.

"We have a cap on the amount of people that can come in,” Paris Police chief Laurent Nunez said on Sunday. “There are 100,000 people that can come in. After that, we can't bring any more people in.

"There will be a celebration around the Parc des Princes as well and the players will be at the Parc des Princes to meet their fans.

"There again we are expecting some clashes, some scuffles and we will be there and we will be very strong in our response against the vandals, against the thieves who have a go at the police officers.

"We will not tolerate any abuse today and the fans who want to enjoy the parade, can do so safely."
