A time mentioned as possible put up for sale or even bought by Paris Saint-Germain, the Stade de France will ultimately not be sold by the French State. Indeed, the Minister of Sports, Amélie Oudéa-Castéra, announced this on Tuesday during a hearing before the Cultural Affairs Committee of the National Assembly: “I confirm the rejection of the only sale offer to the extent that it was considered by the Fin Infra teams (the infrastructure financing support mission of the Ministry of Finance, editor’s note) to be irregular”, she said. However, negotiations are underway until September regarding the resumption of the administration of the Stade de France.

While the management of the venue is contractually left to the Vinci-Bouygues consortium until the end of summer 2025, the Ministry of Sports assures that several candidates, including the company GL Events led by Olivier Ginon considered close to Emmanuel Macron, can make offers to take over this management: “We are today with a process that continues for concession offers. Currently, and until the end of May, a phase of negotiations is taking place with the aim of optimizing these offers. Then, and until the end of September, candidates will have the ability to submit their final offer.specified the minister.
