Paris Saint-Germain is now determined to have its own stadium and turn its back on the Parc des Princes. The future PSG venue will be spectacular.
The decision taken by Anne Hidalgo will not change anything, the leaders of the club in the capital have decided and they are no longer considering buying the Parc des Princes, considering that the historic enclosure dated from another era and had shown all its limits in terms of development. Nasser Al-Khelaifi may have said it and repeated it several times in recent months, but some did not believe it and yet Laurent Perrin, the head of sports at Parisianconfirms, PSG has not been working at all on the acquisition of the Park for months while everything is focused on the future stadium.
Two cities failed by PSG
For the moment, nothing has been decided on the location where the sports venue will be built, but we already know that two long-hot tracks have been definitively abandoned, namely the Saint-Cloud racecourse and Montigny. -Le-Bretonneux. Paris wants to be close to its new training center, in Poissy, but also to public transport. If the location of construction is still being considered, one thing is certain, the new Paris Saint-Germain stadium will be colossal.
The Parc des Princes replaced by an insane stadium
The Ile-de-France daily reveals that the company in charge of working on the future stadium, namely Populous, the famous consulting firmAmerican architecture specializing in sports facilities, is already thinking very big for the future PSG screen. “ A new generation stadium, fully modular, with a capacity varying between 50,000 and 90,000 seats. It will not only be able to host PSG matches, but also other sporting events and major concerts. With this pharaonic project, which should cost more than 1 billion euros, PSG sees far and wants to project itself over the next fifty years », Explain our colleagues.
Qatar no longer alone in deciding on the stadium
It is true that if Qatar is still the sole decision-maker, in this very specific matter, Arctos Partners, which bought 12.5% of Paris Saint-Germain last year, has a say. And it's an understatement to say that the investor is eager to allow the reigning French champions to have a stadium capable not only of welcoming more people, but above all of generating colossal revenue. On paper, everything is obviously very exciting, even if this new stadium will not be inaugurated for a few years. And until then, PSG will have to find a second wind, because now tickets to come to the Parc des Princes are no longer available and the prospect of seeing Paris FC arrive in Ligue 1 could change the situation at the public level.
