Determined to play in a stadium with greater capacity, Paris Saint-Germain is seriously considering leaving the Parc des Princes. The capital club hoped to buy the Parisian venue. But Mayor Anne Hidalgo continues to oppose a sale.
Unless the situation changes, 2025 will not be the year of reconciliation between Paris Saint-Germain and Anne Hidalgo. This Wednesday, the mayor of the capital pronounced her wishes for the months to come. A speech during which the member of the Socialist Party confirmed her refusal to sell the Parc des Princes to the reigning French champion. “ There is one thing we will not do in 2025she warned from City Hall. At the same time, I didn't promise it. No, we will not sell the Parc des Princes. »
Once again categorical, Anne Hidalgo still reopened the door to discussions. “ I wish PSG to stay in Paris », Slipped the Franco-Spanish politician in comments relayed by our colleagues from Le Parisien. Not sure that his message will be well received within the capital club. On the contrary, the current leader of Ligue 1 risks seeing it as a provocation given the tensions with Nasser Al-Khelaïfi.
-PSG towards a move
Remember that the president of Paris Saint-Germain, determined to play in a stadium with greater capacity in order to record revenues comparable to those of the competition in Europe, planned to renovate the Parc des Princes. A project that Qatar is only considering on condition of becoming owner of the enclosure. But for several months, discussions have been met with the refusal of Anne Hidalgo, supported last year by the Paris Council. As a result, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, without waiting for the departure of the mayor who does not aspire to a third term in 2026, is actively seeking a site for the construction of a new stadium.
