The residents of Massy clearly do not want PSG. According to a consultation conducted by the municipal opposition, 74% of participants said they were against the installation of the club’s future stadium, compared with 26% in favor. A total of 2,542 votes were recorded. For the opposition, the message is obvious: the municipal majority and PSG cannot ignore such a clear result.
Mayor Nicolas Samsoen (UDI) disputes this initiative, arguing that it is not a genuine civic consultation but a way to collect email addresses before the elections. He promises to organize a real referendum later, based on electoral lists and reliable information.
Local tensions grow around PSG’s stadium project
Meanwhile, PSG is moving forward with its future stadium project while no longer ruling out the possibility of staying at the Parc des Princes. As the 2026 municipal elections approach—crucial for any potential sale of the Parc—the club is working on all available options.
Poissy has the advantage, but so does the Parc des Princes. PSG dreams of a modern complex open year-round, combining sports, entertainment, dining, and services. The management has visited several inspiring models, such as certain American stadiums, the Tottenham Stadium, and the Kai Tak Sports Park in Hong Kong, inaugurated in 2025 and very close to the desired concept. Retractable pitch, modular capacity, true versatility: this type of infrastructure appeals to Paris.
The goal is a 90,000-seat stadium, well integrated into its surroundings, with an estimated cost of €1 billion and an opening planned within about ten years. Two municipalities remain in the running to host the project: Massy and Poissy. The club has even already unveiled early visuals for these sites. But a reversal remains possible. PSG would be willing to stay at the Parc des Princes if the future city hall agrees to a sale or a long-term lease. With a political agreement, capacity could be increased to 53,000 seats. Without an agreement, the club would leave Paris to build in Poissy. In short, PSG is moving toward a new stadium but no longer rules out remaining in its historic home. The year 2026 will be decisive.
