However, it is won the Coupe de France against Monaco, hitting the winning goal in extra time Guillaume Hoarau. PSG but knows that they are not, however, in recent years, the art developed. Each team will no longer be big stars, still at the beginning of the millennium, for example, played a major club in Paris, Ronaldinho. Teams controlling equity firm Colony Capital announces that seeks new investors, which would make Paris Saint-Germain a real big club.

The domestic vanquished quite firmly, and reached the quarterfinals of the Champions League. Something fa big is about to begin.
Monaco, the journey was a little different. 2011. langetakse another fa league. The team is full of young players, among veteran Giuly. But former glory in 2004, which culminated in the final of the Champions League play, which was lost under the Portola fa FC (mentored by none other than Jose Mourinho), but is still in ruins. There is no longer a team, Fernando Morientes (who, true, was, at the time the loan against a team), Patrice Evra'd, Jaroslav Plasil, Emmanuel Adebayor and Jérôme Rothenit. Rather, it is a sign attached to a quiet demise. However, on 23 December 2011 in Monaco can be a wonderful Christmas gift: Russian billionaire Dmitry Rõbolovlev reports that are purchased off the football club AS Monaco. Fertilizer fortune driven oligarch notify the club after the purchase that "I think that this club has great potential. I hope he can now begin to implement this potential in both the domestic league and in Europe." Although Monaco finishes the season 2011/2012 Ligue 2 s Eighth, but the team does not sleep in the summer, and adds its own formation on the number of players, the most striking is the transition of young talent in the Argentinean Lucas Ocampose booster River Plate'i team.

Although PSG pursuit of the transition period has not yet been thought to be carried out (Ibrahimović and Cavani with the offensive line? Is it even possible, given the Swedish national team, ründetuusa ego?), It is already clear that the 2013/2014 season is the most intriguing teams in France, just scrap the wealthy Monaco and PSG. However, they can not possibly continue laristamist colossal enough, because in no time applies to professional football Financial Fair Play (FFP Brief soccer) principle, fa which should ideally prevent the reckless fa spending of the rich clubs. It is already among the top clubs in only a handful of clubs who are able to remain profitable and it worries UEFA.
