Paris Saint-Germain and the city of Paris have launched a steering committee to discuss the future of the Parc des Princes. The capital club wants to acquire the stadium or obtain a long-term lease to be able to grow and get closer to the top European clubs.
What is happening?
The city of Paris and Paris Saint-Germain have started discussions to determine the future of the Parc des Princes. A capacity of between 60,000 and 70,000 seats is being studied to allow the club to have a stadium that is closer to the top European clubs.
Why is this important for Paris Saint-Germain?
Paris Saint-Germain believes that the construction or renovation of a large stadium is essential to its growth. The club refuses to invest in the Parc des Princes if it does not become the owner.
What comes next?
The steering committee, co-chaired by the City of Paris, Paris Saint-Germain, and the 16th arrondissement town hall, brings together all the institutional stakeholders concerned with the future of the site. The two parties share the objective of having, by autumn 2026, the necessary analysis elements to inform decisions and progress towards the selection of a site.
