List of Paris Saint-Germain F.C. seasons
Paris Saint-Germain Football Club, commonly referred to as PSG, is a French professional association football club based in Paris, whose first team play in the highest tier of French football, the Ligue 1. The team was formed in 1970 by the merger of Paris FC and Stade Saint-Germain.[1]
Having won 30 titles in its history, Paris Saint-Germain is the most successful club in French football.[2] The Parisian side is also one of only two French clubs to win a European title.[3] Domestically, PSG have won six Ligue 1 titles, a record ten Coupes de France, a record six Coupes de la Ligue, five Trophées des Champions and one Ligue 2 title. In international club football, Paris have won one UEFA Cup Winners' Cup and one UEFA Intertoto Cup.[4]
PSG have played 46 seasons, all of which have been spent within the French football league system. The club have contested Ligue 1 on 43 occasions, and have won the competition 6 times.[4] Although PSG have never been relegated, the club was demoted once (in 1972);[1] their 43 successive Ligue 1 seasons between 1974 and 2016 is soon to become a league record. Their worst Ligue 1 finish to date is 16th, their placing at the end of 1971–72 and 2007–08. The 2015–16 season was PSG's best in terms of league performance: the team were only beaten twice,[4] won 30 out of 38 games (national record),[5] and collectively scored 102 goals, a club record which still stands.[4] Zlatan Ibrahimović holds the record for most goals with PSG during a single campaign; he scored 50 goals in 51 matches during the 2015–16 season (national record).[5]
Background
Paris Saint-Germain started their career in Ligue 2 for the 1970–71 campaign.[1] PSG made an immediate impact,[6] winning the Ligue 2 title and celebrating their first birthday in Ligue 1. The 1971–72 term ended with an honourable 16th-placed finish.[1] Their momentum was soon checked, however, and the club split in 1972.[6] The professional arm of the club joined CA Montreuil and continued life in Ligue 1 under the name of Paris FC, while PSG were demoted to Division 3.[1]
Les Parisiens finished second in their group and when first-placed Quevilly balked at promotion, the capital club moved up to the second division in 1973. During 1973–74, PSG's second-placed league finish saw the club take on Valenciennes in a play-off tie for promotion to the premier division. Beaten 2-1 away, PSG won 4-2 at the Parc des Princes on 4 June 1974 and were promoted to Ligue 1 – ironically, the same year that Paris FC were relegated. Since that time, PSG have never been demoted or relegated from the French first division.[1] The club moved into the Parc des Princes that same year.[6] PSG had previously played at the Stade Municipal Georges Lefèvre (now the club's training complex known as the Camp des Loges).[7]
