The Paris Saint-Germain version Qatar Sports Investments continues to evolve, both in sport and economically. The capital club has just entered the fifty most valued sports franchises in the world according to the ranking established by
Forbes
magazine
. The French team now occupies 43rd place, just ahead of the Houston Rockets (NBA) and behind the Carolina Panthers (NFL), with an estimated valuation of $ 2.5 billion. Last month, for the first time, Forbes had already named PSG as one of the 10 most valuable football clubs.
“We can be proud to have raised Paris Saint-Germain among the most valued sports franchises in the world.
While we are satisfied with the progress made, we remain focused on our future goals, said Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, PSG president.
We are working on many projects over the next few years, both on and off the field, which will consolidate and strengthen the strength of our institution and our brand for generations to come. ”
The Dallas Cowboys (NFL) monopolize the top spot, ahead of the New York Yankees (MBL) and the New York Knicks (NBA).

PSG shows the most beautiful evolution
In addition, Paris Saint-Germain is the franchise with the best percentage value evolution over the last five years, with an increase of 207%, ahead of the Los Angeles Rams (NFL, 176%) and Liverpool (165% ). It is especially during the last twenty-four months that the semi-finalist of the Champions League has seen his value explode (+ 129%).
The reasons are multiple: the sporting results, with a C1 final in 2020, the arrivals of Neymar and Kylian Mbappé in 2017 or even commercial partnerships like the one signed with Jordan Brand.
Paris is thus one of the ten football clubs with the greatest valuation (9th).
But the Parisian formation still has a long way to go to catch up with FC Barcelona, the first round ball franchise, whose value is estimated at 4.76 billion dollars.
