The new Parc des Princes even bigger after all?

For months, the future of the Parc des Princes has been at the center of debate and tension. Paris Saint-Germain wants to expand it, but does not want to fully fund it without owning the stadium. Paris City Hall, for its part, is reluctant to pay or sell. PSG opened the door to Massy or Poissy, but nothing came of it, and talks over the Parc were able to resume with the election of mayor Emmanuel Grégoire. This Friday, L’Equipe reports that there could even be more than the 60,000 seats long mentioned.

Before negotiations with the City resumed, the European champion had expansion plans for the Porte de Saint-Cloud stadium in the works, aiming for around 60,000 seats compared with 48,000 currently. Although nothing has been definitively decided yet, the feasibility studies are now looking at a capacity of between 60,000 and 70,000 spectators. This could allow PSG to have a stadium more in line with those of its European rivals.”

We remain cautious—nothing is settled yet. The negotiations could once again stall, and PSG’s departure remains possible. However, there do seem to have been recent steps forward regarding work on this iconic stadium. The 70,000-seat mark would be very interesting, if confirmed. There are still difficulties to resolve in terms of construction work and available space. Let’s wait before getting too carried away.
