Politics and sport are often closely linked. The history of dirty tricks at PSG recently showed this. In line with this controversy, Mediapart made further revelations this Sunday about Neymar’s transfer to the capital club. In this article, we learn that Gérald Darmanin allegedly worked to obtain tax advantages for Paris Saint-Germain.
While the arrival of the Brazilian in Ile-de-France represented a tax risk estimated between 67 and 224 million euros, the management of PSG would have approached Hugues Renson, former vice-president of the National Assembly, to benefit from this big discount. According to the investigation, Jérôme Fournel would also be involved in this affair. For information, the latter, close to Emmanuel Macron, is none other than the chief of staff of the new Prime Minister Michel Barnier.
