It’s fair to say that players and fans at Paris Saint-Germain won’t have to travel far for their local derby next season.

The Ligue 1 giants have already retained their title crown this season, and on Wednesday, they have a golden opportunity to make the Champions League final.

Luis Enrique’s side will kick off their second leg against Arsenal with a 1-0 advantage following Ousmane Dembele’s early goal at the Emirates.



In the meantime, however, neighbours Paris FC have been enjoying a stellar season of their own.

They drew 1-1 at Martigues on Friday night.

That result, along with Metz only managing a 3-3 result at home to Rodez, meant Paris will be promoted to the top flight irrespective of what happens on the final day.

The club, owned by the wealthy Arnault family, last played in the top tier of French football 46 years ago.

In comparison, the Parc des Princes, where PSG play their home games, boasts a 48,583 capacity.

The two arenas have previously been measured at just 44 yards apart.

However, that will change next season with Everton set to move to a new home in Bramley-Moore Dock.
