According to "L'Equipe" Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani is ready to invest 150 million euros in this summer. Leonardo will be the sports director and will have full powers on the market. The names linked to P.S.G. include Kaka, Eto'o, Ganso, Borriello, Fernando, Lucas and Menez.

And with the arrival of Leonardo there is a chance that Carlo Ancelotti end up there as the head coach. Benitez is another name linked with the coach job.

I really liked PSG when they had Lama, Rai and co.

Yeah I had a soft spot for them back in the mid 90s too.

 

[Lemmi]

have they already got gameiro?

should be interesting, though i think lyon has demonstrated the furthest a french team can go whilst being sustainable.

Yep.

A decent league, a very attractive city to live in, and unlimited funds. They'll pull a Chelsea and go really far in their league and in Europe.

They have all the ingredients to do just that. The problem is that the rest of the French league unfortunately is not at the level of PL. (economically especially, when it comes to talents the Ligue 1 is the best in my opinion together with La Liga).

I became a fan of PSG weirdly enough after meeting some nice folks from Paris down at Epcot in Orlando, Florida, who were all PSG fans.

Recently?

Skysports.com understands Paris St Germain have lodged a £13.5million bid for Queens Park Rangers playmaker Adel Taarabt.

The Morocco international shone for Rangers last season as they landed the Championship title in impressive style.

Much of their best work came through Taarabt, as he plundered 19 goals in 44 appearances.

Having matured into one of the most exciting creative talents in the second tier, QPR were looking forward to unleashing the 22-year-old in the Premier League.

They are under no illusions, however, that the highly-rated midfielder is going to attract attention this summer.

Approach
Numerous clubs have already been linked with big-money approaches, with Taarabt fuelling the fire by claiming that Chelsea and Arsenal are among those to have expressed an interest.

It is, however, French giants PSG who have made the first formal approach.

The Ligue 1 outfit are now backed by wealthy Qatari investors and are expected to spend big this summer.

They have identified Taarabt as a top target and are now waiting on Rangers' response.

I think he's a good player.

£13.5million sounds huge but I'm not sure if he could have been bought for less than 10m too... meh

And Leonardo officially left Inter for PSG.

 

[Banana-Rama]

[DucdeOrléans]

Indeed. Two beautiful cities such as Paris (the biggest metropole in Europe in terms of the population) and Rome need to have strong clubs.

Leonardo is officially the new GM of PSG.
