France said on Monday that nearly 900 people had been arrested in riots that broke out after Paris Saint-Germain club won the coveted Champions League for a second consecutive year over the weekend.
"We've had more than 890 arrests. In total, that's 45 percent more than last year," Interior Minister Laurent Nunez told broadcaster France Inter, adding that nearly 180 law enforcement officers had been injured.
Celebrations were blighted by clashes between youths and police in Paris and other cities, cars set on fire and shops looted.
On Sunday evening, President Emmanuel Macron received the team at the Elysée Palace. While he said PSG were an "immense pride" for France, he denounced the "unspeakable" violence.
"Enough. We are fed up," he said.
