Paris Saint-Germain chairman Nasser Al-Khelaifi has revealed that they are now open to selling a percentage of the club.
Messi Out For World Cup Opener? Argentine Speaks Out
After being the sole owners of Les Parisiens for just over a decade, Qatar Sports Investment are now interested in offloading a percentage of the club.
Since their takeover, the Ligue 1 outfit has gone from being a good French side to becoming a superpower in European football. PSG have become the most successful side in the history of the French top flight and have also broken the record for the most expensive-ever transfer with their acquisition of Brazilian superstar Neymar in 2017.
The club has also grown commercially and because of this, PSG chairman Nasser Al-Khelaifi does not want to sell the club entirely but only a small portion of it.
"We received an offer of more than €4 billion but we are not going to sell, of course, just a percentage of the club, we'll think about it," he told talkSPORT.
"We took the club at €70 million and today it's over €4 billion. It's a good project.
"We don't do everything right, of course we're not perfect.
"From where we bought the club I think we should be proud."

The PSG chief also addressed rumours surrounding Lionel Messi's future. The Argentine has seven months remaining on his current deal at the Parc des Prince but despite being linked with a potential return to Barcelona or a move to Major League Soccer, Al-Khelaifi has insisted the playmaker is happy in the French capital.
"He is with us. He is a Paris Saint-Germain player and has a contract with us. He has a contract with us and we will see at the end of the season. He's happy in Paris," he added.
