List of Paris Saint-Germain F.C. presidents
have had 15 permanent presidents and two interim presidents, for a total of 17 presidents. Qatari businessman and Qatar Sports Investments chairman, Nasser Al-Khelaifi, is the current president as well as the club's first foreign president ever. He has been in charge since November 2011.
Al-Khelaifi is the club's most successful president in terms of trophies won, with 25. Under his tenure, PSG have clinched seven Ligue 1 titles, five Coupe de France, six Coupe de la Ligue and seven Trophée des Champions. Emblematic club president in the 1990s, Michel Denisot, comes second. He oversaw PSG's golden era between 1991 and 1998 during which the Parisians won eight trophies.
:fr:Pierre-Étienne Guyot|Pierre-Étienne Guyot, elected in June 1970, was the club's first president. His tenure was short-lived, but during his only season in charge PSG won their maiden trophy, the Ligue 2 title. Famous Parisian couturier Daniel Hechter joined the club in June 1973 as president of the management committee. He immediately left his mark on PSG by designing their iconic home jersey. Hechter became club president in June 1974 following the resignation of :fr:Henri Patrelle|Henri Patrelle. He named fellow Frenchman Francis Borelli as vice-president.
Borelli assumed the presidency in 1978 after Hechter was banned for life from football by the French Football Federation. He was found guilty of running a ticketing scheme at Parc des Princes. Borelli went on to become the club's longest-serving president. During his 13 years in charge, PSG won their first major titles: two French Cups in 1982 and 1983, and the Ligue 1 title in 1986.
On the other hand, the tenures of Simon Tahar and Benoît Rousseau were the shortest in the club's history; they served as interim presidents for a few months in 2008 and 2011, respectively. At the time, the duo were also presidents of the Association Paris Saint-Germain, which manages the amateur section of the club. Rousseau still currently leads this organization. Alain Cayzac occupied both positions as well. He was the Association's president between 2001 and 2006, and then club president from 2006 to 2008.
