PSG football club is owned by Qatar's Oryx Qatar Sports Investments (QSi) which is chaired by Nasser Al Khelaïfi, but essentially the club is owned by the Qatari royal family. Having pumped nearly £2 Billion in to ensuring PSG became winners of the Champions League, there are more than one or two angry 'royal' investors who need placating. Perhaps it is the ire of those who control the purse strings that is responsible for the recent rumours that have reserged regarding a Qatari bid to take over West Ham United.

Saturday afternoon's match against Southampton has little relevance on paper, Saints secured their premiership status last week and Hammers, already way safe from relegation, cannot reach a Europa league seventh spot following Everton's victory against Burnley yesterday evening.
