You can go deeper. Hakimi - Real Madrid, Donnarumma - Milan, Neves - Benfica, Ruiz - Betis, Vitinha - Porto. Everything is bought from clubs with more football tradition, or local French clubs who don't have any other way to survive other than sell their young players to PSG.
How the hell do you root for them vs a club like Inter, operating on very limited funds, with a team built on the cheap. A real underdog punching above their weight, with a class manager, by having some players nobody rated 3-4 years ago.

People still mad about the semifinal.
There's no way on Earth that PSG are a more likeable club than Inter.

This is normal for best club in the league to buy all the best domestic talents. PSG is certainly not the only club to do it. Bayern is literally doing the same for ages
Inter also has no homegrown players. Bastoni and Barella were bought from Atalanta and Cagliari, respectively. Then they developed them into world class footballers, and there is nothing wrong about it imo.

The club stands for it, and I hate the club
But I have no reason to hate the team
Surely, the team's achievements will also elevate the club. But PSG is winning it sooner or later

Bayern certaily gets flak for it also. And it's not the same. PSG didn't develop any players by comparison. Most of the talents they sign are for 40-60m. A lot of money for young players. They were already highly rated young players, and that's why they cost so much money.
It's enough to look at the money PSG spent in the last summers on young players. They flash their money to buy these players precisely because they want ready made players, not to waste 5-8 years developing them.
That's why they managed to go from a star-studded squad to a new team in less than 2 years: Qatar money.
I would have been very angry after our semifinal because we clearly deserved to reach the final more than Inter. Did we show quality football in the matches against Inter? No, what kind of quality football can you talk about when a team concedes 7 goals? But we were better than Inter. So, if PSG beats Inter today, showing better football than we did, my anger will go away. I’ll be calm — okay, that means PSG is better than Barcelona and deserves this trophy more. And yes, that conclusion isn’t based on just one match. PSG has been playing quality football almost the entire season, especially in the second half. In the first half, they were just very unlucky in terms of finishing, especially in the Champions League.

Think PSG is a better fit for Inter than Barca was. Think Inter could have a better defensive performance vs PSG than Barcelona. PSG don't really have players who could do to Inter what Yamal did on small spaces.
I can see a low scoring game, 2-1 for either side. Or even 1-0 if the keepers are in a good night.

PSG are crap in the air. Inter will have a lot of joy from dead ball scenarios.
Inter have 'real men' like Acerbi who could bully Marquinhos.
