It seems clear: Paris Saint-Germain will never see its neighbor put a spoke in the wheels.
Antoine Arnault, at the heart of his first press conference to present his major project for Paris FC, also spoke about Paris Saint-Germain, recalling that he was “a subscriber for many years”: “From now on, I I'm lucky to be invited by my friend Nasser al-Khelaifi. You will never hear me say anything negative about PSG. Bernard's son has loved the Parc tenant club (but for how much longer?) since he was twelve, according to his own count.
“What the club has done is extraordinary”
He goes even further in his praise: “I admire this club and I do not rule out supporting two of them in Paris. When we are in Ligue 1, I will support PSG, except twice a year. . What the club has done in recent years is extraordinary.” If he spontaneously cites the France – Italy in the final of Euro 2000 as one of his best memories as a football fan, those of a PSG fan inevitably refer to “the victory in the Coupe des Coupes in 1996 and the PSG – Real with the head of Antoine Kombouaré”. It was in 1993, in the quarter-final second leg of the UEFA Cup, when “Casque d'or” defeated the Madrilenians 4-1 at the end of added time after a 3-1 defeat in the first leg.
Antoine Arnault was then 17 years old, then had become a young adult at the time of the last European Cup won by a French club. “There is room for another club in Paris, he concludes again on the subject. Without putting too much pressure on yourself. If we don't move up this season, it will be the next one or the one after that. We are here over an extremely long time.” What about, finally, the connection with the too quickly aborted Matra Racing project in the 80s? “With everything I have just mentioned, the long time and the way we see things, I believe we will be quite far from it.”
