October 21 – European champions Paris Saint-Germain have taken a major step in their search for a permanent home, consulting supporters as part of a study to decide between Poissy, in Yvelines, and Massy, in Essonne. as possible locations for the club’s future stadium.
After years of uncertainty surrounding their tenure at the Parc des Princes, PSG have narrowed their focus to the two potential sites and are inviting fans to help shape what the next generation of their home might look like.
Already involved in the mix are a 90,000-strong portion of supporters – including season-ticket holders, members of the MyParis loyalty programme and regular match-goers – who have taken part in a detailed survey exploring what they value most in a modern football experience.
The survey focuses on a number of criteria including matchday atmosphere, accessibility, facilities, fan services and community engagement, as well as gathering views on both shortlisted areas: Poissy and Massy.
The move follows a period of tension between the club, who are perhaps at their most popular in their long history, and the City of Paris over ownership of the Parc des Princes – with PSG keen to upgrade pronto to match their growing stature in the European hierarchy.
The club, under Qatari ownership and the bottomless funds that come with it, have long sought control of their own venue to expand capacity, generate greater matchday revenue and host major events – ambitions that have proven difficult under the city’s management of the stadium.
Beyond the survey, PSG have begun technical and environmental studies, including soil analysis, transport access and architectural feasibility, while continuing discussions with local authorities in both regions.
A final decision is expected by autumn 2026 – marking a key moment in PSG’s long-term vision to create a purpose-built, world-class home. For their growing pool of supporters, the choice carries emotional weight – especially for those in the French capital.
The question remains as to whether the Parc des Princes, which has been PSG’s home since 1974, has become an inseparable part of PSG’s identity, or if the prospect of a new stadium is a necessary step for a club with global ambitions.
Ultimately, the question facing PSG is as much about identity as geography – how to remain rooted in Paris while shaping a home fit for a modern European powerhouse.
