QSI, the owner of Paris Saint-Germain, continues to expand its footprint on the European football scene.
In a press release issued this Tuesday, December 9, Qatar Sports Investments announced its intention to acquire Belgian club KAS Eupen, which competes in the Challenger Pro League — Belgium’s second division, equivalent to France’s Ligue 2. The club is currently in 7th place.
Until now, KAS Eupen had been owned by the Aspire Zone Foundation, based in Qatar.
According to the statement:
“QSI will assume full operational control of the club — including all sporting, commercial, and operational assets — within a very short timeframe.”
QSI also outlined three key priorities for the Belgian side moving forward:
• Developing the youth academy
• Modernizing the club’s infrastructure
• Strengthening community engagement
QSI, already a minority shareholder in Braga since 2022
“This investment reflects QSI’s core strategy: developing sports assets, advancing athlete development and pathways, and fostering high-performance environments across its portfolio,” the statement added.
QSI, which has owned Paris Saint-Germain since 2011, also holds a minority stake in Portuguese club SC Braga, acquired in 2022.
