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]
PSG have played 45 seasons, all of which have been spent within the French football league system. The club have contested Ligue 1 43 times, and have won the competition on 6 occasions.[2] Although PSG have never been relegated, the club was demoted once (in 1972);[1] their 42 successive Ligue 1 seasons between 1974 and 2015 is soon to become a league record. Their worst Ligue 1 finish to date sixteenth, their placing at the end of the 1971–72 season and the 2007–08. The 2013–14 season was PSG's best in terms of league performance: the team were only beaten three times,[2] won 27 out of 38 games (national record), and collectively scored 84 goals, a club record which still stands.[3] Zlatan Ibrahimović holds the record for most goals with PSG during a single season; he scored 41 goals in 46 matches during the 2013–14 season.[4]
Domestically, PSG have won six Ligue 1 titles, a record ten Coupe de France, a record six Coupe de la Ligue, five Trophée des Champions and the Ligue 2 title once. In international club football, the Parisian side have won one UEFA Cup Winners' Cup and one UEFA Intertoto Cup.[2] PSG is the most successful club in French football and one of only two French clubs (with Olympique de Marseille) to win a major European club competition.[5][6]

Background
Paris Saint-Germain started their career in Ligue 2 for the 1970–71 campaign.[1] PSG made an immediate impact,[7] 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.[7] 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]
PSG finished second in its 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 capital 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.[7] PSG had previously played at the Stade Municipal Georges Lefèvre (now the club's training complex known as the Camp des Loges).[8]
