Sorry I meant Greek league. My point still stands. 

Of course they have a long way to go. I never said they didn't. All of my conversation has been talking about how this can affect them for years to come. PSG is a company that will be around for a very long time, they don't think short term. 

You really think people haven't tuned in to watch Neymar in his matches for PSG? Really?

I never calculated it, I'm saying it's not ridiculous to say extra deals where they can use Neymar as the face of the club, sponsorships, merch sales etc. That could easily come up to 25 million at least in a year. 

But nevermind you're obviously right. The massive corperation of PSG have no idea what they're doing and threw away 200 million without any way of thinking of how they could make their money back no way having such a big player could increase them in any meaningful way, man if only you were on their board. 

Except your point failed to debunk it in anyway, the's one team in a weak league playing CL as a result and no growth was being made, Olympiakos even had players from other top teams in Europe playing for them no growth happened for the league at all in the end. France doesn't show any signs of avoiding that.

No outside of France and some Brazilian fans I don't think many people who don't follow French football will tune in given how football fans are, they may know the players but if they don't really care much for the league they're not going to tune in every week to watch PSG. The problem with assuming people will tune in is that as good as he is he's in a weaker league and the are still a tonne of gifted player in other stronger leagues, Coutinho if he left for Barca could easily replace the void left behind by him.

Again if you throw out numbers like that you're going to have to show how you calculated that because it's not just the fee they've paid for him it's also his wages and all, to make 25m they'd have to offset a lot of costs first and as far as PSG being a corporation blah blah as smug as you're trying to be many rich clubs in PSGs position have gone under trying to boost themselves in the same manner most famously was Leeds when they tried to become the next Man Utd with the same optimistic arguments you're putting through. Just because they're a coporation doesn't mean every move they make is rock solid business wise.
