Paris Saint-Germain dreams greater. We are not talking about stars or the Champions League, although this is a goal of the capital's club; But from the future Stade des Ile -de -France. A file that has been driving a lot of ink for a few months. Indeed, the town hall of Paris has repeatedly refused to give in to the enclosure to the French champion club. “I repeat it (…) once and for all: there will be no sale of the Parc des Princes”had notably declared Anne Hidalgo in February 2024. In the process, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi had dropped a small bomb. “It's too easy to say now that the stadium is no longer for sale. We know what we want, we have spoiled years to want to buy the park. It's over now. We want to move from the park. “
A will that he has continued to confirm by speech and acts. In November 2024, the Parisian president had given a layer at the microphone of RMC Sports. “I really like the Parc des Princes, everyone loves it. If I decide with my heart, I say: “We don't leave”. But when I think with my head, we died. In Europe, all large clubs have 80,000 or 90,000 places. If we want to be of this level for our supporters, we must enlarge the stadium. There is no other solution. If it is acted? We're going to leave. We have no choice. The city leaves us not the choice. It is a decision of the city because we cannot do what we want in the stadium. ”
The Massy site hits many boxes
In search of land to build your new stadium; But also a whole commercial and activity center, PSG has seen several municipalities in Île-de-France apply in order to host the training led by Luis Enrique. This is the case of Ris-Orangis, which checks many boxes for managers but which is too far from the training center and Paris according to them. This Friday, The Parisian reveals that a candidacy mainly caught the attention of Parisian thinking heads. PSG, which has visited several areas in the Ile -de -France region, has a preference for the site based in Massy, in Essonne. A space located in the ZAC de la Bonde which seems to correspond to the expectations of managers, in particular with regard to public transport and road and highway axes since the area is well served.
The French media adds that Victoriano Melero, the director general of PSG, who visited this space with Nicolas Ramillon (head of the PSG real estate sector) spoke of this “Serious track” In Doha, where we will validate or not his proposal. There, he therefore presented the project. Information denied by PSG to our colleagues, who persist and sign. If Massy's candidacy seems to hold the attention of PSG, there is still a long way to go. The Parisian Specifies that there are several obstacles such as the fact that the site is located on an agricultural area or the fact that no construction of more than 40 meters in height can be built on this space near Orly airport and the civil aviation radar. But Paris could find a parade by building the stadium a little below the level of the land according to The Parisianwho concludes by indicating that a decision could be made at the latest this summer.
