Reigning Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain got some new next-door neighbors in the summer, when uber-trendy Paris FC moved into the Stade Jean-Bouin, situated almost literally on the doorstep of the Parc des Princes.
– LaLiga is back! Can Real Madrid beat leaders Barcelona to title? – Modern classics: 25 of the best kits from the 21st century – Messi will score 900th goal in 2026. Can he reach 1,000, pass Ronaldo?
Paris FC had been playing at the Stade Sebastien Charlety, but decamped and moved around five miles to the west of the French capital. The two clubs will meet as neighbors for the first time on Sunday, Jan. 4 when PSG host Paris FC in the league, and then again eight days later in the Coupe de France.
The move has made the clubs two of the most cosy bedfellows in professional football. But where do PSG and Paris FC rank on the list of the sport’s closest stadiums? We’ve taken a look around the globe to find the nearest neighbors to find out.
Standing at close quarters in west London, the two Premier League clubs both sit within the London borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. You couldtake a leisurely stroll from one to the other easily in under an hour, but if you didn’t fancy the walk then it would be a journey of two stations on the tube to get from one to the other.
Second only to the eternal battle between Boca Juniors and River Plate, the Avellaneda derby between Independiente and Racing Club ranks as one of the most fiercely contested matches in Argentine football. It’s hardly surprising that there is no love lost between the two clubs involved given that a few streets amid central Buenos Aires are all that keeps them apart.
Dundee and Dundee United are so close that you could feasibly build a footbridge between their stadiums, should the need ever arise. Dens Park and Tannadice are the two closest professional football grounds in the U.K. with effectively just one residential street running between the two stadiums.
According to our calculations, with just the Rue Claude Farrere passing between the two stadiums, PSG and Paris FC are the closest rivals in world professional football. In a devilish piece of scheduling, the Paris FC will host PSG at the Stade Jean-Bouin on the final day of the Ligue 1 season, a game which could decide the title race, the relegation battle, or both.
2. F.C. København (Parken Stadium) and Boldklubben af 1893 (Østerbro Stadium): 0.13 miles
