Change of era is imminent for Paris FC, which will very soon experience a major upheaval in its shareholder base. According to information from The teamthat we can confirm, the club from the south of Paris, currently owned by Pierre Ferracci and Bahrain (minority shareholder since 2020), will soon see two big players enter its capital: the Arnault family, which heads the LVMH group ( owner of “Parisien-Aujourd’hui en France”) and Red Bull.
According to details provided by L’Équipe, Ferracci “will retain 30% of the club’s capital until 2027, the date on which he plans to exit”. Initially the Arnault family will purchase approximately 55% of the club’s shares, waiting to recover the Ferracci shares (for a total of 85%), and Red Bull will participate up to 15%.
Red Bull, which will welcome Jürgen Klopp as sporting director in January 2025, is no stranger to this environment and already has several teams around the world (Salzburg, Leipzig, New York, Bragantino, etc.) as well as extensive knowledge that is certain on player training.
Current leaders of Ligue 2, with two points ahead of their pursuers Lorient and Dunkerque, Paris FC is aiming to move up to Ligue 1 this season. This Wednesday, the Parisian club also formalized the extension of the contract of its coach Stéphane Gilli until 2026.
