Sharing the Parc des Princes with PSG: “Maybe the question will come up,” says Paris FC

Pierre Ferracci, president of Ligue 2 leaders Paris FC, has opened the door to the idea of sharing the Parc des Princes with PSG for a time.

Which stadium and division will Paris FC be playing in next season? The Parisian club, leader of Ligue 2 after thirteen rounds, believes more than ever in its chances of joining the elite of French soccer. If they do, it will be with great ambition. PFC has been recently acquired by Bernard Arnault’s family holding companyin partnership with Red Bull, which already manages several major soccer clubs (Leipzig, Salzburg, New York…).

But at this rate, the Charléty stadium may no longer be a match for the Parisian project. “For the time being, filling a 20,000-seat stadium is enough to keep us happy, whether we’re playing in the French Ligue 1 or the Champions League. 1 or League 2″assured Pierre Ferracci, President of Paris FC, on the set of La chaîne L’Équipe on Tuesday evening. However, the club is considering a move to Jean-Bouin, home of Stade Français Paris. Negotiations “difficult” are underway”, commented Ferracci.

“Transforming Charléty would be ideal”.

“If we could go to Jean-Bouin and transform Charléty, that would be ideal”explained the Parisian manager. But we still need to be able to increase capacity. “If there were no possibility of extending Charléty or Jean-Bouin, the question of volume would arise.”he acknowledged. This raises the question of the Parc des Princes, which is owned by the City of Paris and which Paris Saint-Germain would like to use. is threatening to leave in order to build its own stadium.

“The question of sharing may come up one day. After that, I hope that the two clubs will deal with their stadium problem intelligently and that there won’t be a stadium war in Paris.”said Ferracci. The Parc des Princes has a capacity of around 48,000. A total deemed insufficient by PSG, accustomed to playing the leading roles in the Champions League. This is something Paris FC could aspire to in the long term.
