He hardly missed any game he could attend. This Wednesday night, like Saturday against Le Havre, the Parc des Princes stands were filled with a special spectator: Nicolas Sarkozy. As we can see in some photos, he exchanged ideas with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi and with Yaël Braun-Pivet, sitting next to him with a scarf from the capital’s club.
Hours before the Champions League duel against Tottenham, the former President of the Republic was still given a definite sentence in the Bygmalion affair. Even though he had submitted an appeal to the Cassation Court, Nicolas Sarkozy’s appeal was rejected.
Therefore, he should be called by the sentencing judge in the coming weeks to set his sentence at one year in prison, six of which is capped due to the illegal financing of his losing 2022 presidential campaign.
Meanwhile, the former head of state is free to move around and take advantage of the opportunity to watch his favorite club’s match. On Saturday, he had witnessed Paris’ calm victory against Le Havre (3-0).
