Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) is set to officially inaugurate its state-of-the-art training facility, the PSG Campus, in Poissy on Thursday afternoon. Among the high-profile guests invited to the event are tennis legend Novak Djokovic, UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin, and prominent former PSG players like Pauleta and Javier Pastore. The Parisian club revealed these details to AFP on Wednesday.
The PSG Campus, built at an investment of €300 million ($315 million), spans an impressive 59 hectares and features 16 football fields. It was developed to address the limitations of PSG’s historic Camp des Loges facility in Saint-Germain, which had become insufficient for the club’s growing demands. The men’s first team began training at the new campus at the start of the 2023-2024 season, but the official opening is marked by this grand event.
