Towards the end of the 1960s, an ambitious group of businessmen decided to create a major club in the French capital. They chose to merge their virtual side, Paris FC, with Stade Saint-Germain after the team from Saint-Germain-en-Laye, 15 km west of Paris, won promotion to Ligue 2. Thanks to some 20,000 subscriptions from individuals desperate to see an elite football club in Paris, Guy Crescent, CEO of Calberson and Pierre-Étienne Guyot, vice-president of Racing Club de France, asked the Sangermanois directors to become part of their project. Paris Saint-Germain Football Club was founded on 12 August 1970. The merger was ratified by the French Football Federation on 27 August 1970.
