Since the arrival of Qatar Sports Investments (QSI) at Paris Saint-Germain in 2011, there have been rumors of a possible departure several times. Possibly just after the 2022 World Cup. This ended up being shelved, but The Team revive the idea this Thursday morning.
« On follows the daily life of the French champion with a pronounced detachment”
“On the side of the princely palace, in Doha, we follow the daily life of the French champion with a pronounced detachment since the end of the 2022 World Cup. Now, the club in the capital is no longer seen as a priority.
This relative distancing – knowing that only major transfers (Ibrahimovic, Neymar, Messi, etc.) or strategic decisions historically went back to Emir Tamim ben Hamad al-Thani – is accompanied by a reduction in sail in investment terms. A reflux reinforced by the weariness felt with the attitudes of overpaid stars.
“The emir would be a seller in the event of a good offer. »
This does not mean that Qatar plans to disengage. Even if certain sources close to circles of power in Doha assure that the emir would be a seller in the event of a good offer, President Nasser al-Khelaïfi remains the boss of PSG and continues to manage – often from a distance too, given his multiple hats – club affairs. »
We can grant the sports newspaper that it is not impossible that QSI could listen to a “ nice offer ». It's a bit like the definition of the latter. If she is is “ belle », it’s because it’s interesting. And therefore a sale is possible.
The question is the amount that is allowed to reach this status, if the proposal could arrive soon and if QSI is looking for a buyer or if it would take a somewhat daring initiative to buy one.
For the moment, there is not the slightest sign of a sale while the new training center in Poissy has just been presented with great fanfare. Above all, there is a project relaunched in 2023 with another approach.
Perhaps there are “stars” missing at the moment in the eyes of observers and investors, but we must also agree to relaunch a healthier base for the team to really move forward. This is a somewhat sluggish period due to some disappointing results. The opportunity to spread rumors all over the place. Let's stay careful and let PSG work.
