This summer, Paris Saint-Germain, winner of Ligue 1 and the Coupe de France, was to travel to China near Beijing to face AS Monaco, its runner-up in the league, to compete for the Champions Trophy. But Chinese administrative burdens forced the Professional Football League to postpone this event. Like last year when the Parisians offered themselves Toulouse, the shock must logically take place at the start of the year, in January, but we still need to know the location of the poster.
Monaco prefers Abidjan
This beginning of the week, the newspaper the Team claimed that the LFP was very close to having an agreement with Qatar to play this match on the Doha side. But according to information from journalist Malick Traoré, Ivory Coast and Abidjan have not yet abandoned this race. In addition, the journalist explains that the Monegasques would be more attracted to the Ivorian track while Paris Saint-Germain, owned by Qatar, only wants to play in Qatar. On Monday, a board of directors must decide on this choice. For the moment, the Qataris are starting with a huge head start, but with the LFP, anything is possible.
