Paris Saint-Germain sports director Leonardo asked his longtime girlfriend to marry him live on air after the Champions League quarterfinal draw.

Anna Billo was presenting Sky Italia's live coverage and speaking to Leonardo on Friday about PSG's quarterfinal pairing with Barcelona, when the former AC Milan player popped the question.

Billo was visibly surprised and embarrassed when Leonardo said, ''Can I ask you a question? Do you want to marry me?''

The presenter laughed and insisted they would talk about it at home, but when pressed she said, ''OK ... yes.''

An overjoyed Leonardo responded with, ''Since we have drawn Barcelona, let's get married ... we'll have two ceremonies, in Milan and Brazil.''

Billo has been going out with Leonardo for four years and has a child with the former Brazil midfielder.
