The Paris Saint-Germain Football Club aims at the Asian continent

The French Chamber is glad to invite you to the next event of The Major Sporting Events Committee to meet Sebastien Wasels, Managing Director of the Asia-Pacific region for Paris Saint-Germain, on Tuesday, September 11, at the French Embassy in Tokyo.

Founded in 1970, the Paris Saint-Germain Football Club has now established itself as one of the strongest teams in France and in Europe. With 36 top-flight trophies, no relegation from the "Ligue 1" and most consecutive seasons in top flight, the PSG is also the most popular football club in France and one with the most widely supported team in the world.

Following the PSG's Asian Tour, Sebastien Wasels will describe the ambition and strategy of the most famous French football club in the Asia-Pacific region, and maybe reveal one or more of its ambitious projects to increase its visibility in the Asian continent.
