Promoted to Ligue 1, Paris FC LVMH-Red Bull version has chosen to leave the Charléty stadium. The capital club managed to find common ground with the Stade Français rugby team to share the Jean-Bouin stadium until 2029. And after? Will the PFC want to aim for a larger enclosure? Will he give in to the temptation to take possession of the Parc des Princes in the event that Paris Saint-Germain leaves to build its new stadium? Asked about the subject by The Teamthe boss of Paris FC, Antoine Arnault, was very clear.
“I’m not asking myself that question right now. We have a lease until 2029 and an excellent relationship with Stade Français. We are going to make our way in this stadium. I like it and I think we should be satisfied with what we have. We may be able to consider improvements but I’m not really here to say that we need a 40,000-seat stadium, even if we are one day in the European Cup. I wonder if we don’t prefer a stadium that vibrates loudly and is always full, rather than a stadium that’s too big and sounds a little hollow. And finally, I anticipate your question, concerning the Parc des Princes, I don’t even want to hear about it. It’s PSG’s stadium and it would be disrespectful to raise the subject.” The message got through.
