PSG/OM – Impressive sum raised for the Trophée des Champions | OneFootball

The 2025 Trophée des Champions, between Paris Saint-Germain (2024-2025 French champions and winners of the Coupe de France) and Olympique de Marseille (2nd in Ligue 1), could not be played in the summer (as is traditional, even if this tradition has rarely been followed lately) and has been scheduled for January 8 in Kuwait. According to L’Equipe, this country secured the right to host the match for a substantial sum.

It’s a nice jackpot for a single match, a sign of a certain interest in French football and one of its greatest rivalries. This opportunity should be used to further develop the image of this championship, and thus its revenues. Even if some like to criticize Ligue 1, it has some great qualities.

Let’s hope its participants know how to showcase it. Including the executives, who need to stop the public quarrels of recent years and focus on the work that needs to be done. The launch of the Ligue1+ channel is promising, with an appealing spotlight on Ligue 1 and behind-the-scenes access at last. This momentum must continue.
