PSG’s story

The PSG is a “new” club within the most recognized in the European continent. It was founded on August 12, 1970after the fusion of two institutions: Paris Football Club and the Stade Saint-Germanis. In those years, Paris wanted to join the League of France with a competitive team and that at the same time represented in the best way to the city of Luz.

With the passage of time, he got it. In 1974 he reached Ligue 1 to stay. Since it disembarked in the maximum division, he added a total of nine links of Ligue 1, 13 France Cup titles, nine league cup titles and nine of France Super Cup.

At the international level, however, it does not accumulate so many successes: Just a Europe. Therefore, the chance of lifting the orejona, the great title that has been looking for years and that has been denying it, is more than special.

The first conquest of the local league arrived in the 1985/1986 season, and the second in 1993/1994. However, the explosion of the team that is a sensation in France and that seems not to have a rival in its land was since 2011 with the arrival of the Qatari owners.

Most of the club’s titles began from that decade. The PSG comes from winning once more link 1, achieving no less than 11 titles of the last 13 disputed. At the same time, he added glasses of France and League glasses.

A great investment in the first team, with the arrival of great figures, made it a short time in the king of France. For their ranks, in recent years, soccer players such as Zlatan Ibrahimovic, David Beckham, Edinson Cavani, Neymar and Kylian Mbappé, among others. The Brazilian Raí, in the nineties, was the pioneer at the time of the great hiring.

The Club makes home in the Princes Park, since mid -1973. And has a maximum rival to Olympique de Marseille. The two most important cities in France also have a classic at club level: both teams are together with the Saint Etienne the most winners of the local tournament.

The Parisian club will turn 55 years of life on August 12. A short period within clubs that are already centenary. And it is very close to the most important achievement in its history.
