Paris Saint-Germain Handball, commonly known as PSG Handball, is a French professional handball club based in Paris, France, and operates as the handball department of Paris Saint-Germain FC. Founded in 1941, the club currently competes in the top tier of French handball, the LNH Division 1. Originally established as Patriotes d'Asnières, the club underwent several name changes and relocations before becoming part of Paris Saint-Germain ahead of the 1992–93 season. Following a period of decline and separation from PSG in 2002, the club was rebranded as Paris Handball and later entered a new era after being acquired by Qatar Sports Investments (QSI) in 2012, adopting its current name.
The club's history has been marked by steady development and several pivotal turning points. After experiencing both successes and setbacks in the mid-20th century, PSG Handball rose to prominence during the 1990s under the PSG banner. However, the early 2000s saw the club suffer relegation and financial difficulties. The post-2002 period involved a gradual rebuilding process, with Paris Handball stabilising independently and achieving consistent domestic performances, laying the foundations for its resurgence prior to the QSI takeover.
Since 2012, PSG Handball have established themselves as the dominant force in French handball. The club have won twelve LNH Division 1 titles, six Coupe de France, three Coupe de la Ligue, and a record five Trophée des Champions. PSG have also claimed two LNH Division 2 championships earlier in their history. On the international stage, the club have become regular contenders, reaching the EHF Champions League final in the 2016–17 season and the IHF Men's Super Globe final in 2016, finishing runners-up in both competitions.
PSG Handball have played their home matches at the Stade Pierre de Coubertin, which also serves as the club's training ground, since 1992. The club hosted its European fixtures at the Halle Georges Carpentier until 2016, when Coubertin underwent renovation and refurbishment works to meet European Handball Federation (EHF) regulatory standards for European competitions. The club operates a well-structured academy system, including a reserve team competing in the Nationale 1, the third tier of French handball, since its promotion in the 2017–18 season. The reserve team has won one Pré-nationale title, two Nationale 3 titles, and one Nationale 2 title. As part of PSG's long-term development strategy, the handball section is expected to relocate its training and academy operations to Campus PSG in 2028.
The Parisian club was founded in 1941 as Patriotes d'Asnières and adopted the name Asnières Sports one year later. In 1945, the team reached the final of the Coupe de France, losing to Villemomble at the Parc des Princes in front of an estimated crowd of 15,000 spectators. At the time, handball was played in an eleven-a-side format. Asnières Sports was chaired by Christian Picard, who was succeeded by his son Gérard Picard during the 1975–76 season; Gérard Picard remained president until 2003. [1]
In 1985, the club partnered with Racing Club de France and competed under the name Asnières Racing Olympique 92 until 1987. During the 1985–86 season, the team achieved promotion to LNH Division 1 for the first time in its history after reaching the LNH Division 2 final, where it was defeated by Villefranche. Following this success, the club's leadership persuaded the Council of Paris to join forces with the municipality of Asnières-sur-Seine to establish a major handball club in the capital. The Hauts-de-Seine-based team subsequently relocated to Paris and was renamed Paris-Racing-Asnières in 1987, before adopting the name Paris-Asnières Handball in 1989. [1] [2] [3] [4]
Several future international players featured for the club during this period, including Jackson Richardson and Patrick Cazal. Richardson spent two seasons with Paris between 1989 and 1991, while Cazal signed his first professional contract with the club in 1989. Under the management of Yann Blanchard, Richardson and Cazal, along with league top scorer Júlíus Jónasson, helped Paris-Asnières win their first trophy in 1990, claiming the Division 2 title after defeating Sélestat in the final and securing promotion to the top flight. [1] [2] [5] [6] [7]
On 7 July 1992, Paris Saint-Germain FC and its owners Canal+ took over the professional team and reserve squad of Paris-Asnières. Led by Charles Biétry, PSG's multisport project also included active sections in judo, volleyball, rugby league, boxing, and basketball. This development led to a further change of name, as Paris-Asnières became PSG-Asnières. The partnership lasted ten years. Chaired by Gérard Picard, the club played its home matches at the Stade Pierre de Coubertin and the Halle Georges Carpentier. [1] [8]
During the 1992–93 season, under the management of Patrice Canayer, PSG competed in the Division 1, the top tier of French handball, finishing sixth with a balanced record of wins and defeats. In the Coupe de France, the team reached the quarter-finals before being eliminated by Vénissieux. The season marked a transitional but stable foundation for PSG's handball project, combining experienced internationals such as Patrick Cazal with the club's first steps under the PSG identity. [1] [8]
The following season, PSG reinforced its squad with Nenad Peruničić from Red Star Belgrade and made its European debut in the EHF European Cup, reaching the semi-finals after defeating Karviná and Benfica before losing to Drott of Sweden. Domestically, PSG finished fifth in the French Championship, just missing European qualification, and were eliminated in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France by Gagny. Meanwhile, the reserve team won the Nationale 3 title. [9]
PSG entered a period of consolidation and renewed ambition under Macedonian manager Risto Magdinčev, who took charge for the 1994–95 season. French internationals Denis Lathoud and Stéphane Stoecklin joined the squad to replace Peruničić. Despite an early-season injury to Lathoud, PSG steadily improved, finishing fourth in the French Championship. The team also reached the semi-finals of the Coupe de France, where they were eliminated by OM Vitrolles, and secured qualification for the EHF European Cup. [10]
In 1995–96, PSG strengthened further with world champion pivot Gaël Monthurel, aiming to challenge OM Vitrolles for the national title. The team achieved its best domestic performance to date, finishing second in the league with 20 wins, 3 draws, and 3 losses, including two defeats to OM. PSG were eliminated in the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France by Ivry and suffered a surprise early exit from the EHF European Cup against Norwegian side Drammen. [1] [11]
The 1996–97 season saw PSG qualify for the EHF Champions League following the financial relegation of OM Vitrolles. Stoecklin departed for Germany and was replaced by Macedonian Tomče Petreski. The team struggled domestically, finishing fourth in the French Championship, 13 points behind champions Ivry, and were eliminated in the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France by Créteil. In the Champions League, the team defeated Hasselt in the round of 16 but finished last in the group stage, recording five defeats in six matches. The disappointing campaign led to Magdinčev's departure, leaving the club without a title during his tenure. [12]
Following a disappointing campaign, PSG appointed young manager Nicolas Cochery ahead of the 1997–98 season. The club lost its leading figure, Denis Lathoud, who joined Ivry alongside Dejan Lukić, and recruited Egyptian pivot Sameh Abdel Waress as his replacement. The season quickly unraveled: PSG opened with a five-match losing streak, while Abdel Waress suffered a shoulder injury that effectively ended his Paris career. Further setbacks included injuries to Gaël Monthurel and Stéphane Cordinier, the temporary signing of Radovan Djurković as a medical joker, and a doping suspension for Christophe Zuniga. PSG finished 8th in the French Championship, 27 points behind champions Montpellier. Despite reaching the Coupe de France semi-finals, they were eliminated by Montpellier, and exited the EHF European Cup in the round of 16 against Szeged. [13]
In 1998–99, the return of Bernard Latchimy after a season in Germany failed to compensate for the departures of Cordinier and Monthurel, the latter becoming manager at Saintes. Abdel Waress remained on the roster despite being sidelined for over a year and never returning to competition. After two opening defeats, PSG reinforced the squad with Yugoslav international Nikola Vojinović and Christophe Marais. While the Stojiljković–Vojinović pairing showed attacking promise, inconsistency plagued the team. PSG finished 6th in the league, with their strongest run again coming in the Coupe de France, where they reached the semi-finals before losing to Toulouse. Individually, Zoran Stojiljković stood out as the league's top scorer with 159 goals. [14]
Ahead of the 1999–2000 season, PSG underwent another major rebuild, losing several experienced players, including Marais, Nicolas Farrenc, Gérald Motte, Christian Bertreux, and Fabrice Leton. To raise ambitions, the club recruited French internationals Olivier Girault, Stéphane Raphanel, and Stéphane Zuzo. PSG made a promising start and remained in contention for European qualification deep into the season, but a defeat at Livry-Gargan on the penultimate matchday cost them third place. The Coupe de France represented a final chance to secure Europe, but a heavy 32–25 semi-final loss to Dunkerque ended those hopes. PSG finished 4th in the French Championship, and Cochery left the club at the end of the season after failing to qualify for Europe. [15]
Following the disappointment of the previous campaign, PSG appointed former Boro Golić from Nîmes as manager, ushering in a period of renewed ambition. Goalkeeper Francis Franck departed for Germany and was replaced by Arnaud Siffert, as PSG assembled a competitive and motivated squad. The team made a strong start to the season, winning their first four matches and reaching the winter break with eight wins from ten games. After 20 matchdays, PSG sat second behind Chambéry, but a dip in form late in the season saw them finish 4th in the French Championship. Despite falling short of the title race, PSG secured qualification for the EHF European Cup and enjoyed an impressive run in the Coupe de France, reaching the final. Playing at Coubertin, Paris were defeated 30–26 by Montpellier, but the campaign was widely viewed as a success, marking a clear improvement and a return to competitiveness at the national level. [16]
PSG reinforced its squad with the signing of Icelandic international Gunnar Viktorsson; however, several key departures weakened the team, including Bernard Latchimy, Stéphane Raphanel, and captain Zoran Stojiljković. Following the departure of Charles Biétry, the PSG multisport structure gradually collapsed, leaving handball as the club's sole remaining section and leading to a reduction in ambitions. During the 2001–02 season, PSG were eliminated from the EHF European Cup in the round of 16 on away goals by Macedonian side Pelister, who later reached the final. Domestically, the club finished fifth in the French Championship and were narrowly eliminated in the Coupe de France quarter-finals, losing 27–26 to Montpellier. [17]
On 25 May 2002, Louis Nicollin acquired the club, which was subsequently renamed Paris Handball, marking the official end of the PSG multisport project initiated by Canal+ and Charles Biétry. In 2003, Nicollin succeeded Gérard Picard as club president, a position he held until 2010. During the Nicollin era, under manager Thierry Anti, Paris reached the round of 16 in the 2005–06 EHF Champions League, won the club's first major trophy by defeating Aix in the 2007 Coupe de France final, and reaching a second cup final in 2008, where they lost to Montpellier. [1] [5] [17] [18] The reserve team also experienced success, winning consecutive titles in the Pré-nationale in 2006 and the Nationale 3 in 2007, securing promotion to the Nationale 2. [19]
Freshly retired Paris player Olivier Girault succeeded Thierry Anti as head coach for the 2008–09 season, which ended with the club finishing 13th in Division 1 and being relegated. PSG responded by winning the Division 2 title in 2009–10, securing an immediate return to the top flight. In March 2010, club owner Louis Nicollin sold Paris to a group of investors led by former Paris Handball player Bruno Martini, and Jean-Paul Ouillon was appointed president in May 2010. Upon their return to the elite division in the 2010–11 season, Paris finished 11th in the league, with academy graduate Alix Nyokas establishing himself in the first team. In the 2011–12 season, under head coach François Berthier, the club narrowly avoided relegation, finishing 12th on the final matchday. [1] [2] [5] [20] [21]
A new era began in June 2012 when Paris Handball was acquired by Qatar Sports Investments (QSI), the owners of Paris Saint-Germain, and the club reverted to the PSG name. A new sporting and executive structure was introduced, with Nasser Al-Khelaifi replacing Ouillon as president, and Philippe Gardent appointed head coach, assisted by Thierry Perreux. In pursuit of immediate success, PSG signed several high-profile international players, including French Olympic gold medallists Didier Dinart, Luc Abalo, and Samuel Honrubia, 2011 IHF World Player of the Year Mikkel Hansen, Croatian international Marko Kopljar, and Spanish internationals José Manuel Sierra and Antonio García. [1] [22] [23] Since the Qatari takeover, PSG have operated with a budget exceeding €17 million, the largest in European handball, ahead of other leading clubs such as Kiel (€9.5 million) and Montpellier (€7.6 million). [24] [25] [26] [27]
Backed by a star-studded squad, PSG quickly established itself as a dominant force in French handball during the 2012–13 season. The team played with a superior style and also benefited indirectly from a betting scandal that heavily affected rivals Montpellier, although PSG were not entirely spared, as Honrubia and Mladen Bojinović were suspended in connection with the investigation. With an exceptional record of 24 wins, one draw, and one defeat, PSG secured the first French Championship title in the club's history, clinching it five matchdays before the season's end and qualifying for the EHF Champions League. The team narrowly missed out on a domestic double, losing 35–28 to Montpellier in the Coupe de France final, and were eliminated in the quarter-finals of the Coupe de la Ligue by Nantes. At the end of the season, Didier Dinart retired, leaving behind the most illustrious record in French team sports. [1] [22]
PSG strengthened its squad for the 2013–14 season with high-profile signings, including Daniel Narcisse, Croatians Igor Vori and Jakov Gojun, as well as Fahrudin Melić and Gábor Császár. The club reached the quarter-finals of the EHF Champions League for the first time in its history but were eliminated by Veszprém just short of the Final Four. Domestically, Paris was unable to match the consistency of Dunkerque, who claimed their first French Championship title. The season ended on a positive note with a Coupe de France victory over Chambéry, securing PSG's second historic national cup. PSG also finished third in the Trophée des Champions at the start of the season and were eliminated in the quarter-finals of the Coupe de la Ligue by Saint-Raphaël. [1] [28]
In the 2014–15 season, PSG engaged in a tight battle with Montpellier and secured the second French Championship title in the club's history during the final stretch. A victory over Tremblay on the last matchday allowed PSG to lift the trophy, completing a domestic treble. Earlier in the season, the club had claimed its second trophy by defeating Nantes in the Coupe de France final at their home arena, Coubertin, having previously won their first Trophée des Champions title against Dunkerque. The only domestic competition to elude PSG was the Coupe de la Ligue, where they were eliminated by Nantes in the quarter-finals. In European competition, PSG came close to qualifying for the EHF Champions League Final Four for the first time but were once again eliminated by Veszprém. [1] [29]
Under new manager Zvonimir Serdarušić and strengthened by the arrival of French international Nikola Karabatić, PSG won the Trophée des Champions and claimed their third French Championship title in the 2015–16 season. The club also reached the finals of the Coupe de la Ligue and the Coupe de France, losing both to Montpellier. In European competition, PSG qualified for their first EHF Champions League Final Four. Season highlights included a home victory over Veszprém at Carpentier, an away win against Kiel—whose arena had remained unbeaten for four years—and topping Group A ahead of Flensburg, allowing the team to bypass the round of 16. Serdarušić's side ultimately finished third, losing to Kielce in the semi-finals but defeating Kiel again in the third-place match. Individually, Mikkel Hansen set a new record for the most goals scored in a single edition, with 141 goals. [1] [30] [31]
For the 2016–17 season, PSG signed world-class players Luka Stepančić and Uwe Gensheimer, as well as emerging talent Nedim Remili. [32] The club dominated the domestic scene, winning the Trophée des Champions for the third consecutive year, claiming their first Coupe de la Ligue title after three previous final losses, and securing a third consecutive French Championship, finishing ahead of Nantes in all three competitions. [1] [32] [33] [34] They were, however, eliminated in the round of 16 of the Coupe de France by Montpellier. [35] PSG also made its first appearance at the IHF Men's Super Globe, reaching the final, where they lost 29–28 to defending champions Füchse Berlin. [36] [37] Gensheimer, the league and European top scorer, led Paris to the EHF Champions League final, where they were edged out 24–23 by Vardar. [32] Meanwhile, the reserve team won the Nationale 2 title and achieved promotion to the Nationale 1. [38]
PSG won the French Championship for a fourth consecutive season in 2017–18, securing their fifth league title in six seasons since 2012. Daniel Narcisse played the final match of his career, scoring in the closing minutes of a 30–26 home victory over Chambéry on the final matchday to clinch the title. Paris finished level on points with Montpellier but were crowned champions based on a superior head-to-head goal difference. In addition to the league, PSG completed a domestic treble by winning both the Coupe de France and the Coupe de la Ligue. The only setback was the season-opening Trophée des Champions final, in which PSG lost to Nantes. In European competition, the club reached the EHF Champions League Final Four for the third consecutive season but were eliminated in the semi-finals by Nantes. [24] [39]
For the 2018–19 season, Raúl González replaced Serdarušić as manager, while PSG retained most of the squad’s key players, including veteran goalkeeper Thierry Omeyer for his final season. [24] González led the club to the French Championship and the Coupe de la Ligue. PSG secured their fifth consecutive league title, and sixth overall, with four matches remaining. The team, however, finished fourth in the Trophée des Champions and were eliminated from the Coupe de France quarter-finals by Montpellier. In European competition, PSG were eliminated in the EHF Champions League quarter-finals by Kielce, marking another disappointment on the continental stage. The season also marked Omeyer's final domestic title before his retirement, as well as the last PSG campaigns for Gensheimer and Stepančić. [25] [40] [41]
PSG began the 2019–20 season by winning their fourth Trophée des Champions, defeating Montpellier. [42] The club remained unbeaten at the start of the league season and held a six-point lead at the top of the table when the campaign was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Ligue Nationale de Handball (LNH) subsequently canceled the final eight matchdays and awarded PSG their sixth consecutive league title and seventh overall. [43] The Coupe de France and the Coupe de la Ligue were also annulled, with PSG still in the semi-finals of both competitions. [44] [45] [46] In the EHF Champions League, the competition resumed with a Final Four in December 2020 following the lockdown. PSG were eliminated in the semi-finals by Barcelona but secured third place after defeating Veszprém, marking the club's third third-place finish in the competition, after 2016 and 2018. [47]
Having lost four previous Coupe de France finals to Montpellier (2001, 2008, 2013 and 2016), PSG ended the streak during the 2020–21 season by defeating Montpellier 30–26 to claim their fifth Coupe de France title. [48] The Parisians then beat Cesson Rennes to secure the French Championship and complete a league–cup double. With two matches remaining, they could no longer be caught by Montpellier, who sat second, three points behind with only one game left. The title was PSG's seventh consecutive league championship and eighth overall, equalling the number of titles held by city rivals Ivry. [49] PSG's pursuit of the EHF Champions League once again fell short, following a surprising semi-final defeat to Aalborg. The club took comfort by defeating Nantes 31–28 in the "small final" of the Final Four, finishing on the podium for the fourth time in five Final Four appearances, after similar results in 2016, 2018 and 2020. [50]
By defeating Créteil on the final matchday of the 2021–22 season, PSG completed the first perfect season in the history of the French Championship, winning all 30 of their matches. [51] The club also retained the Coupe de France, achieving the league–cup double for the second consecutive season with a victory over Nantes. However, PSG was eliminated by a single goal in both the Coupe de la Ligue semi-finals against Chambéry, in the tournament's final edition, and the EHF Champions League quarter-finals against Kiel. The season also marked the departures of Mikkel Hansen after ten years with the club, along with goalkeepers Vincent Gérard and Yann Genty, and homegrown talents Benoît Kounkoud and Nedim Remili. [52] [53]
In the 2022–23 season, PSG secured their tenth French Championship title with a 35–32 victory over Nantes at Coubertin, following a closely contested title race with Nantes and Montpellier. [54] Despite their league success, PSG lost the Trophée des Champions final to Nantes and were eliminated in the Coupe de France semi-finals after a 33–20 defeat away to Montpellier, the club's heaviest loss in any competition since its acquisition by QSI in 2012. In the EHF Champions League, PSG reached the Final Four but, for the first time in the club's history, failed to record a win at that stage and finished fourth. [55] [56] [57]
PSG claimed their fifth Trophée des Champions title with a 35–25 victory over Nantes, avenging their defeat in the previous edition. The win provided a positive start to a 2023–24 season that ultimately proved mixed. [58] The Coupe de France final, expected to be closely contested, instead ended in a decisive 31–23 victory for Nantes, who retained the title at the Accor Arena. [59] PSG concluded the season on a high note by defeating Aix on the 30th and final matchday of the league, finishing one point ahead of Nantes to secure their 11th French championship overall and 10th consecutive title. The match also marked the final club appearance of French handball legend Nikola Karabatić, aged 40. [60] The league title offered some solace for PSG following their elimination from the EHF Champions League quarter-finals by Barcelona, which prevented the club from qualifying for the Final Four. [61]
The 2024–25 season, the first following Nikola Karabatić's retirement, proved challenging for PSG. The club were defeated by Nantes in the Trophée des Champions, failed to reach the EHF Champions League quarter-finals for the first time under QSI ownership after a heavy 35–25 home loss to Szeged in the round of 16, and were beaten 8–7 on penalties by Montpellier in the Coupe de France final following a 28–28 draw in regulation. [62] [63] [64] Led by captain Luka Karabatic, Nikola's younger brother, PSG took consolation in securing their twelfth French Championship, and eleventh consecutive league title, with a 39–31 home victory over Istres on the penultimate matchday, becoming mathematically uncatchable by Nantes. [65] [66]
Following a summer marked by significant changes—most notably the appointment of Danish manager Stefan Madsen to replace Raúl González, as well as a revamped squad featuring seven departures and seven arrivals—PSG delivered an underwhelming performance in the opening match of the 2025–26 season, losing 29–23 to Montpellier in the Trophée des Champions.

The team's regular home ground is the Stade Pierre de Coubertin in Paris, France, which has a capacity of 4,016 spectators. [68] [69] The club moved into the venue in 1992 after becoming the handball section of Paris Saint-Germain FC ahead of the 1992–93 season. [1] [8] Coubertin remained the club's home arena even after PSG disengaged from the team in 2002. [1] [17] [68] However, from the outset, PSG were required to stage their European fixtures at the Halle Georges Carpentier—also located in Paris and with a capacity of 4,800—after the European Handball Federation (EHF) declined to approve Coubertin, primarily due to the non-compliant dimensions of the playing area. [8] [70] [71] [72]
Following PSG's return to ownership in 2012, the club continued to alternate between the two venues, using Coubertin for domestic matches and Carpentier for European competitions until the end of the 2015–16 season. [1] [22] [70] [73] [74] In particular, all of PSG's EHF Champions League home matches between 2013 and 2016 were played at Carpentier. [70] [71] [72] [73] [74] During the summer of 2016, Coubertin underwent renovation and refurbishment works to meet EHF regulatory standards, enabling PSG to host Champions League matches at the arena from the 2016–17 season onward. [75] Since then, the club have played all of their home fixtures—both domestic and European—at the Stade Pierre de Coubertin. [70] [73] [74]
The Stade Pierre de Coubertin also serves as PSG's training ground; however, the club and its academy are expected to move into Campus PSG in 2028. By then, PSG plans to have constructed two judo dojos, two handball courts, and additional facilities, including a football stadium with a capacity of 5,000 spectators. [76] [77] [78] Owned and funded by the club, the training complex already houses the men's and women's football teams, as well as the football academy, and is projected to also accommodate the judo section and its academy.
