Paris 13 Atletico could become a permanent resident of Charléty stadium next season if the club maintains its position in the National league and moves up to the future Ligue 3. An agreement has been reached with the Paris city hall to simplify access for P13A to the stadium in the 13th arrondissement.
Previously used mainly by the women’s team since the departure of Paris FC’s Ligue 1 team to Stade Jean-Bouin, Paris 13 Atletico players have been training at Charléty stadium and using its gym facilities twice a week this season. Club President Frédéric Pereira expressed gratitude to the city hall and Deputy Mayor Pierre Rabadan for their support and emphasized the importance of quickly securing their place in the league to start planning for the next season.
An estimated one hundred volunteers are expected to assist during the 26th matchday against Rouen (2nd) at Charléty stadium this Friday, serving as a test for future matches in the stadium. Pereira highlighted the opportunity to collaborate with other Parisian clubs, such as PUC, for match organization next season.
Moving to Charléty stadium will solve the issue of playing on synthetic turf, which will be prohibited in the future Ligue 3. Despite the relocation, the renovation project for Pelé stadium, including a hybrid turf, 4,000 seats, and other facilities, remains ongoing and has the support of mayoral candidate Emmanuel Grégoire.
