Nasser Al-Khelaïfi is a happy president. For the second year in a row, his PSG won the Champions League. Enough to strengthen the status of the Parisian club and the love rating of the Rouge et Bleu.
“PSG is the club of all of France, not just of Paris”he also said in comments relayed by BFMTV. A little sentence which provoked the indignation of certain analysts, first and foremost Daniel Riolo.
“I don’t understand the sentence and, at the same time, I understand it because that’s all he is and all I’ve been describing for months, thus confided the RMC polemicist.
He’s the guy who wants to establish hegemony, crush the others, who doesn’t want any other club to exist. »
“He wants to crush the French football market”
“He does not defend Ligue 1, since he does not want Ligue 1 to exist. He wants to conquer all the markets, crush the French football market, he added. Everyone knows that I have supported this club since I was a kid but I never wanted others to like us. »
“That’s not the goal when you’re in Ligue 1,
he said again. It’s us, it’s our club, it’s our life. What is this mixture, this mentality? How can you say something like that? It’s everyone’s own life, everyone’s own identity. He doesn’t have to want to impose his identity on all of us. »
This exit is even worrying in the eyes of Daniel Riolo as the time has come to unite while French football is in the midst of a crisis. “A little naively, I recently said that it was necessary to bring together in the negotiations at the League, at the board of directors, he whispered. But actually, that’s not possible, he doesn’t want everyone to get along. He doesn’t care about Ligue 1. He has his business internationally, it’s working like hell, jersey sales are exploding, the markets are conquered. He doesn’t care about Ligue 1. But there are other people who live in France who have their club, their identity and who don’t give a damn about PSG. That’s how it is, that’s life. »
