Nasser Al-Khelaïfi took advantage of the exposure conferred by the signature of Lionel Messi to convey a few small messages on Wednesday.

The first for the attention of Kylian Mbappé, the second for the supporters and the city of Paris.

In an interview with Le Parisien, the president said he still had the hope of expanding the Parc des Princes, too small for his liking for a club now on a global scale - and more since the arrival of the little one Argentine.

A wish to which the city of Paris is receptive, even if caution is required and the project will in all likelihood wait until the end of the 2024 Olympics to be launched.

"These are subjects that go beyond the simple will of each other," said on France Bleu the deputy for sport at the mayor of Paris, Pierre Rabadan.

There are technical subjects and organizational arrangements for the club which are very important.

There are architects who are working on the possibilities that exist to increase the capacity of the Parc des Princes.

The 80,000 seats that Nasser dreams of?

Impossible mission

The ambition of NAK, which dreams of a stadium with 80,000 seats to compete with those of other behemoths, seems unachievable from the existing Parc des Princes.

Talking about 60,000 places would be more reasonable, and this is what was mentioned during the discussions between the different parties.

“Technically, today I cannot tell you if we are able to fit 80,000 places, calm Rabadan.

It seems to me that this was not the case in the studies that I have seen.
