Upon arrival in 2011, the Qatar Sports Investments (QSI) fund made Paris Saint-Germain one of the most financially powerful clubs in world football.
Over the coming years, they flexed their bank balance tremendously, adding world-class stars in all positions, culminating in the French team being able to pull Lionel Messi away from his beloved FC Barcelona.
Domestically, PSG are now the ones to beat, almost guaranteeing their owners tens of millions of euros for winning Ligue 1 and a cup competition or two each year. They even finally won the Champions League in 2025.
From a cabinet of 18 trophies amassed between 1970 and 2011, PSG now boast 55 trophies, showing the power of Qatar Sports Investments and seemingly making the owners even richer.
So, what is Qatar Sports Investments’ net worth, and how much is the current owner of Paris Saint-Germain worth?
What is Qatar Sports Investments’ Net Worth?
Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) – to which Qatar Sports Investments is a subsidiary of – is estimated to have a net worth in excess of £440 billion. Exactly how much of that is attributed to QSI’s holdings is unknown.
What we do know is that since QSI took over Paris Saint-Germain, even with the massive investment in major signings and their highest-paid players, QIA’s estimated net worth has grown significantly.
Given the money to be earned in European football, especially in UEFA competitions, and the way in which PSG have become a huge favourite in football betting circles, it tracks that PSG’s success has led to a greater value.
Running from 2022 figures, the QIA was said to be worth around £375 billion. By late 2024, reports pointed to the net worth of the PSG owners being up to £390 billion. Now, the figure is in the region of £440 billion.
How Much is Paris Saint-Germain Worth?
Paris Saint-Germain is worth nearly £3.4 billion, according to Forbes at the beginning of 2025, with Deloitte ranking them as the third-highest for annual earnings among all football clubs in the world.
When Qatar Sports Investments purchased PSG, the total sale valuation was estimated to be £100 million, which was for a 70 per cent share.
By the time the 2026 figures are released, it seems inevitable that PSG will be estimated to be worth even more, given that they’ll have all of the cash from winning the UCL in the bank.
Now that the Parisians have finally conquered Europe, the owners will certainly be hoping for another run at the title and to reap the benefits of increased revenues.
This season, PSG rank as the joint-favourites in the Champions League odds and are expected to continue to grow the club’s worth by going deep into Europe’s most prestigious club competition.
How Much is the Owner of PSG and QSI Worth?
Despite the list of PSG’s greatest strikers featuring a whole host of incredibly high net worth and high-earning individuals, few can even come close to comparing the net worth of the PSG and QSI owner.
When PSG were taken over by QIA via QSI, Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani was the head of the family and Emir of Qatar. Since 2013, however, it’s been Tamin bin Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, who also founded QSI in 2005.
Now, as the head of the Qatar Investment Authority board of directors, Sheikh Tamim has helped the fund to generate a tremendous amount of money, buoying his own personal net worth.
Earlier in 2025, the Economic Times reported that the PSG owner’s net worth exceeded £1.5 billion, while Qatar’s royal family’s net worth eclipsed £256 billion.
Paris Saint-Germain is an incredibly rich club with a high valuation, but the body that owns the club is worth far, far more than any football team in the world.
