Paris FC was recently bought by the Arnault family. Enough to revise its ambitions upwards. In particular, it will be necessary to find a stadium worthy of the project.
PSG will certainly have competition in Paris in the coming years. Indeed, the PFC has just been officially bought by the Arnault family. In the operation, Red Bull also acquired 10% of the capital club. This new arrival of an XXL club in Paris is eagerly awaited by fans and observers. Especially since PSG and the PFC have very good relationships. It remains to be seen where Paris FC could evolve. It's hard to imagine the Ile-de-France club having to play Charléty or Jean Bouin. The hypothesis of an arrival at the Parc des Princes is notably on the table. But for Dominique Rocheteau, it would be a big mistake.

During a few words exchanged with The Parisianthe former PSG in fact said: “Paris FC is also a historic club. With the Arnault family, I think it’s a project that will hold up. Afterwards, it is up to the shareholders to ensure that the club keeps its identity. Unfortunately for Paris FC, the small problem is that they don't have the history of a stadium. They played at Porte de Montreuil, then at Charléty… Each club must have its own stadium. We shouldn't play Paris FC and PSG at the Parc, that's obvious. When I played in Paris, PSG and Racing both played at the Parc des Princes, it was very special”. It remains to be seen how the Parc des Princes will in fact be managed. Because it is also not impossible that PSG will start from its legendary venue, while Nasser Al-Khelaïi wants a stadium capable of seating at least 60,000. The PFC could therefore have free rein… To be continued.
