While PSG dreams of buying back the Parc des Princes, Anne Hidalgo has objected to a new refusal.
The rag continues to burn between the leaders of PSG and the Paris City Hall over the Parc des Princes, which the municipality refuses to consider selling to the capital club.
Last month, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi added fuel to the fire with very harsh remarks against Parisian city councilors, accusing them in a barely veiled manner of racism. “Some say we are resuming discussions, others we are not selling to Qatar. Is it because we are Arabs, I don’t know? Is it legal to say that? I don’t know, I don’t think so,” he said, provoking strong reactions within the majority.
This frontal attack did not make Anne Hidalgo blink, who repeated in the columns of West France his refusal to consider a sale of the Parc des Princes, as the owners of PSG are calling for. “I also say it again today and once and for all: there will be no sale of the Parc des Princes, it is the heritage of Parisians. The subject is closed “she asserted in the columns of Ouest-France.
The councilor did not fail to mention the recent declarations of the president of PSG, denouncing “excessive comments” but opening the door to a renovation of the Porte d’Auteuil enclosure. “All this is not serious. I love football, I love my team. I repeat: we are ready to study and support transformations of the Park”she indicated.
