Qatar Sports Investments (QSI), a sovereign wealth fund owned by the State of Qatar, owns Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), a professional football club based in Paris, France.
QSI acquired a controlling stake in PSG in 2011, transforming the club into one of the most successful and financially powerful clubs in the world. Since then, PSG has won numerous trophies, including multiple Ligue 1 titles, Coupe de France titles, and Coupe de la Ligue titles. The club has also made significant investments in its infrastructure and player recruitment, attracting some of the world's best footballers, such as Neymar, Kylian Mbappé, and Lionel Messi.
The Qatari ownership of PSG has sparked debate about the role of state-owned entities in sports and the potential for sportswashing, but it has undoubtedly had a major impact on the club's fortunes and the global football landscape.
