Doha, Qatar: Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) President Nasser Al-Khelaïfi today celebrates 15 years at the helm of the club, marking an era of unprecedented sporting and commercial growth that has transformed the Parisian side into one of the biggest and most recognisable brands in world football.

Since his appointment on November 4, 2011, following the acquisition of PSG by Qatar Sports Investments (QSI), the club has won 43 trophies, compared to 18 in the 41 years before his presidency.

These include back-to-back UEFA Champions League titles in 2025 and 2026, 12 Ligue 1 titles and two UEFA Super Cups. The achievements reflect PSG's rise from a leading French club to one of Europe's most successful teams, with a growing emphasis on young talent and long-term sporting development.

Off the pitch, PSG has also experienced remarkable growth, with annual revenue rising ninefold from €99 million in 2010/11 to €837 million in 2024/25. According to Forbes, the club's valuation increased from €70 million in 2011 to $5.8 billion in 2025, while its global commercial portfolio has expanded to more than 45 partners.

As Al-Khelaïfi enters his 16th year as president, PSG continues to focus on sustained sporting success, infrastructure development and further strengthening its position as a global sports brand.
