Anne Hidalgo begins to be very afraid of a departure from PSG

on

Anne Hidalgo had recently not gone there by four paths concerning the desire of PSG to buy the Parc des Princes. The position of the mayor of Paris was clear: the historic stadium was not for sale. However, given the statements of his deputy, it would seem that the town hall is ready to renegotiate with Paris Saint-Germain.

This is one of the battles that Nasser AlKhelaifi for many weeks now: the property of the Parc des Princes. Since QSI’s arrival in 2011, Qatari owners of the PSG only rent the stadium Paris HolyGerman and the president AlKhelaifi recently let it be known that if it was not possible to buy the Park, the PSG would build his own stadium elsewhere. As it stands, the mayor of Paris does not seem to be ready to cede the Parc des Princes to PSG in view of the recent declaration to the Parisian of the mayor Anne Hidalgo. “Very clearly, the Parc des Princes is not for sale. And it will not be sold. This is a firm and definitive position. This is an exceptional heritage of Parisians. But of course we have to support PSG in its desire and need for renovation, increased capacity, modernization of the Park”.

“Make them proposals that would put them as much in comfort as if they were owners”

Nonetheless, the PSG would almost own the Parc des Princes if we are to believe Immanuel Gregory who spoke this Tuesday in remarks reported by RMC Sports. “In reality, PSG almost owns the Park with a very long concession right, but the mayor wants the stadium to remain an important heritage for Parisians. Work could begin immediately after the 2024 Paris Olympics. If we can reach an agreement. “.

Subsequently, Anne Hidalgo’s deputy wanted to calm things down by trying to find a compromise that temporarily arranged the various parties concerned by this hot file. “We want to make them proposals that would put them as much in comfort as if they were owners with a very long concession”.

“We want to resume the dialogue. There is a major value disagreement”

Finally, the deputy mayor of Paris Immanuel Gregory admitted not having a direct line with the president Nasser AlKhelaifi to dialogue, but only with the teams of the PSG. However, the resumption of discussions is essential for the town hall of Paris and Anna Hidalgo according to Gregory which seems to suggest that a reversal of the situation on the issue of ownership of the Parc des Princes is possible.

“We have contact with the PSG teams but not with the president and we suspect that it is he who decides. We want to resume the dialogue. There is a major value disagreement over the Park. Afterwards, it’s very complicated to estimate the value of the Parc des Princes because if you ask 15 experts there will be 15 different prices. And the price will be framed by Bercy and the council of Paris will validate or not an assignment so we cannot agree on a price by patting each other on the back. Today the rental of the park is 1 million euros in the fixed part and 1 or 2 million in the variable part. So it’s modest compared to OM or LOSC. This contract binds them until 2043”. The stage is set.
