The president of PSG is not of Marseille origin. Which does not prevent him from having a recurring tendency towards exaggeration.

Wednesday evening, at the Parc des Princes, Paris Saint-Germain quite possibly had their best match since the start of the season. By managing to overcome a deficit of two goals behind to finally win (4-2) against Manchester City, the capital club took a good option for qualification for the Champions League play-offs.

After the meeting, Nasser al-Khelaïfi did not hide his joy. Quite the contrary. “We have a great team, we have great players. We must go as far as possible. I am sure that if we continue like this, that if we work seriously every day, we will move forward”reacted the president of PSG in comments relayed by the regional daily The Parisian.

Al-Khelaïfi sees “best” everywhere”

The Qatari businessman may have even let himself be too overwhelmed by emotion. “We have the best staff, the best coach, the best players here, he boasted.

Our mentality is like that (with fingers on his temples, Editor’s note). It's in our heads, we can win every match, I promise you, we will go very, very far. »

A speech which ultimately comes up quite frequently in the mouth of Nasser al-Khelaïfi since Qatar Sports Investments became the majority shareholder of the Rouge et Bleu in 2011. Note that the latter hardly appreciated a question from a journalist at the outcome of the meeting.
