After winning his fourth Olympic gold medal in basketball, Kevin Durant is maintaining his link with Paris in a new way: he is to become a minority shareholder in PSG. Like LeBron James with Liverpool, Kevin Durant has chosen to invest in football.
According to RMC, the 35-year-old Phoenix Suns star is about to acquire a stake in Paris Saint-Germain, becoming one of the club’s minority shareholders.
Since December 2023, QSI has been accepting new investors, including American fund Arctos Partners, which has acquired a 12.5% stake in the club.
Durant is making this investment through his company Boardroom, co-founded with Rich Kleiman, which describes itself as a media company focused on the intersections between sport and entertainment. Following Durant’s visit to PSG’s Poissy campus during the Olympics, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi expressed his desire to ‘strengthen the relationship and work with Kevin and Boardroom to bring the best of sport and entertainment to fans around the world’.
The exact percentage of Durant’s involvement has not yet been released, but will be officially announced shortly.
