The company must in particular carry out a market study, according to the sports daily.
The football club owned by Qatar Sports Investments and the municipality are in deep disagreement over the management of the club's historic premises and clash in particular on the media field.
The club assures that it does not want to invest in the renovation and expansion of the stadium if it does not become its owner and plans to find refuge elsewhere.
Among the hypotheses that have circulated is the construction of a new stadium on the site of the Saint-Cloud racecourse.
But building ex nihilo could take ten years.

For its part, the town hall repeats that it is no longer a seller, after having assured that the purchase price proposed by PSG was ridiculous, around forty million euros against an initially hoped price of around 350 M EUR, according to different sources which do not all give the same figures.
Legends Hospitality is a member of the Sixth Street investment fund and specializes in the operation of sports venues.
In the United States, this company manages the Sofi Stadium in Los Angeles (Rams and Chargers in the NFL), the AT&T Stadium in Dallas (Cowboys), the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas (Raiders), and the football stadium of the Los Angeles Galaxy.
Legends Hospitality was created by the US football teams (NFL) New York Yankees and the Dallas Cowboys and 51% of its shares were bought by the Sixth Street investment fund in early 2021.
In Europe, the company has worked with Tottenham and Liverpool and is responsible for part of the operation of Real Madrid's Santiago-Bernabéu stadium for twenty years.
