'We understand everyone's views and there are times that those of certain countries aren't going to sit easy with people,' said United With Pride secretary Mark Betham. PSG are now one of the biggest and most consistently successful clubs in the world, with three of the most famous players, having previously won two domestic titles in 42 years.

Paris Saint-Germain's £85million deal with the Qatar Tourism Authority is one deal cited, but who is to say what that should be worth?
