From sleeping giant to Champions League powerhouse Let 's explore PSG's long road to the top Author | Jack L Back in 2011, Qatar Sports Investments were deep in negotiations to acquire the sleeping giant that was Paris Saint-Germain. PSG had finished 13th in Ligue 1 the previous season and Nasser Al-Khelaifi, who was leading talks on behalf of QSI, regularly checked the results amid concerns the club could end up being relegated and become a second division side before the takeover was completed. The Parisians stayed up and the deal went through, though the club bore little resemblance to the European heavyweight recognised today.
