Paris Saint-Germain renounces the Stade de France. A decision that Daniel Riolo views very favorably.
Paris Saint-Germain has abandoned the idea of ​​buying the Stade de France. According to Daniel Riolo, journalist for RMC, the capital club was forced to turn to this option, after failing to buy the Parc des Princes from Paris town hall.
According to the editorialist, PSG gave up on the Stade de France for economic reasons. The purchase of the compound, estimated at 600 million euros, would have required additional renovation work, bringing the total cost to at least 900 million euros.
“PSG will never go to the Stade de France,” Riolo said. “They stopped being interested in it for economic reasons: the cost of the purchase was too high, 600 million euros and we also need half of this sum to bring it up to standard, to have a functional stadium for a club which would play every fortnight. We have to redo everything in terms of hospitality. There is the obsolescence of the fire system. This is already excellent news since PSG at the Stade de France is no longer called PSG. He would have denied his story. »

The polemicist also stressed that the supporters of the capital club would not have accepted the move. “I always thought you could move to a new stadium, like Arsenal,” he explained. But going to a stadium that is not yours, I never supported the idea and I believe that most PSG supporters would not have accepted the idea that was first floated at the end from the 90s.”
