Third in Ligue 1 after five days, Paris FC has had a successful start to the season and has European ambitions, potentially two years ahead of schedule. Enough to get closer to its neighbor, PSG. And to illustrate the difference between the two Parisian projects, Antoine Arnault chose a cinematographic comparison during an interview for west france.
“We are not in the same world at all. PSG is “Avatar”, a blockbuster, great actors, special effects. Everyone goes, everyone loves it. We are rather “Asterix and Obelix: Mission Cleopatra”, a French film which, casually, has a certain budget, ambitions and which also meets its audience, he said.. A way of claiming a different identity, which also involves the question of the stadium. For the moment, Paris FC intends to stay at Jean-Bouin, a venue that suits Antoine Arnault. Asked about the possibility of recovering the Parc des Princes if the rival club were to leave, he dismissed the idea: “I don’t even want to talk about it because it seems so impossible to me”.
