Emir of Qatar open to selling PSG as interest fades after 2022 World Cup

Sources close to the circles of power in Doha claim that the Emir of Qatar and owner of Paris Saint-Germain Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani is open to selling the French club in the event of a good offer.

This does not mean at all that Qatar is considering withdrawing from PSG. However, the news outlet alleges that there is concern from the club’s stockholders that interest in PSG has faded in the Middle Eastern country since the 2022 World Cup.  

It’s further alleged that there is a sense of detachment with the Paris project which comes as Qatar is reducing its level of investment in the club. L’Équipe writes that there is a weariness felt with the prior era of overpaid stars and their attitudes. And while QSI continues to absorb losses, it has been asked to reduce the level of spending and to instead become more financially balanced.
