Transfer offensive?

PSG with a desperate attack on Europe’s throne

Even the signing of eight-time world footballer Lionel Messi did not bring Paris St. Germain and President Al-Khelaifi the success they had hoped for.

Paris Saint-Germain has been in the hands of the sheikhs for over 13 years. Around two billion has been pumped into the club since then. But the coveted title in the top flight has not materialized. The next squad shake-up is probably imminent at the Seine.

Looking back. It was June 30, 2011, when the takeover of Paris Saint-Germain by the Qatari sovereign wealth fund became official. Since then, the face of the sheikhs in the French capital, President Nasser Al-Khelaifi, has pumped around two billion euros into the club. Hardly imaginable sums of money that more or less evaporated in the end. Because the one big goal was never achieved: the Champions League.
