Hungry for sport, he grew up to the sound of Formula 1 engines and the exploits of Ronaldinho. Today, with a Master’s degree in sports journalism, he no longer misses an F1 Grand Prix or a PSG match, his two passions and specialties.
It is now official, Paris FC will enter a new era with the arrival of the Arnault family and Red Bull in the capital of the Parisian club which aims to establish itself as the second major club in the capital with PSG . Pierre Ferracci, who still remains president for three seasons, sets the tone for this ambitious, but also difficult, new project.
It is now official, the Paris FC enters a new dimension. Through a press release, the current leader of Ligue 2 announced that he had entered “ in exclusive negotiations ” with Agachethe holding company of the French billionaire Bernard Arnaultowner of LVMH. The PFC thus confirms the information which had leaked in recent days, ensuring that the Parisian club “ will write a new page in its rich history with the Arnault family and Red Bull which has also entered into negotiations for the acquisition of a minority stake ». Et Pierre Ferraccithe president of PFC who will also remain in post, warns the PSG. A new big club arrives in Paris.
“It’s a difficult project because there is already a major competitor in Paris”
« It’s a difficult project because there is already a major competitor in Paris, which is Paris Saint-Germain. And that we must go step by step, and strengthen the structures and foundations of the club which are already solid but which are as solid as one can be in a Ligue 2 club at the top of the basket. So there is still a long way to go. The Ligue 1 stage is important. As long as it is promoted to L1, it might as well be maintained in the long term. And then when the time comes, he really plays at the top of the table. And what everyone thinks about, the European Cups and perhaps one day the most, the Champions League », he announces on the microphone of Canal+.
Ferracci will still stay at PFC
Also invited to comment in more detail on the family’s arrival Arnault, Pierre Ferracci assures that there will still be three years left Paris FC before completely selling his shares: “ I will keep part of the capital while remaining president for the next three years. But the Arnault family will be in the majority, and will have an absolute majority. And Red Bull will have something around 15% when the process is finalized. When we reach a new stage in three years with my exit from the capital of the presidency, the ratio will roughly be a little over 80% for the Arnault family ».
