Assouline is putting Paris Saint-Germain on the coffee table with Paris Saint-Germain, a new Classics Collection title that charts the club’s rise from its 1970 founding to the top of European football. Oxmo Puccino, the French rapper and lifelong PSG supporter, writes the text, and Nasser Al-Khelaïfi opens the book with a foreword.

The book is built in Assouline’s large format, measuring 10 by 13 inches (25 by 33 centimeters) across 296 hardcover pages. French and English text run side by side in a single edition, so the club’s home crowd and its global fan base read the same book. The cover shows a squad huddle under stadium lights, with João Neves’ No. 87 shirt in front and the club crest set in gold above two stars.

Inside, the story moves in three stages. The opening section covers the club’s early foundations and formative seasons, the middle section covers the turning points of the modern era, and the final section focuses on the past two years, when PSG won the UEFA Champions League in 2025 and again in 2026. The closing pages look ahead to a new phase under the club’s latest coach, built around new tactics and a younger generation of players.

The images released with the book cover the full timeline. Dominique Bathenay raises the 1982 Coupe de France, the club’s first major trophy, and Zlatan Ibrahimović kicks a ball in front of the Eiffel Tower at his 2012 unveiling. Kylian Mbappé appears in black and white, a nod to a seven-season run that brought 256 goals and six Ligue 1 titles. Later images show the May 2025 trophy celebrations, packed crowds on the Champs-Élysées for the club’s first Champions League victory parade, and an aerial view of Parc des Princes in the sixteenth arrondissement.

Puccino’s voice ties these chapters together. Born in Ségou, Mali, in 1974 and raised in Paris, he has two Victoires de la Musique awards and was named an Officer of the Order of Arts and Letters in 2019. “Across the years, Paris Saint-Germain has become much more than just a subject of conversation. Much more than a club. It has become a presence. A symbol. A common language,” Puccino said.

Assouline’s Paris Saint-Germain arrives November 10 via Assouline.
