The 1970–71 season was Paris Saint-Germain Football Club's 1st season of existence and its 1st season in the second division of French football, the Ligue 2. PSG also competed in the Coupe de France. The club played its home matches at the Stade Jean-Bouin and the Stade Georges Lefèvre. PSG was presided by Pierre-Étienne Guyot, managed by Pierre Phelipon and captained by Jean Djorkaeff.[1]

Towards the end of the 1960s, an ambitious group of businessmen decided to create a major club in the French capital. They chose to merge their virtual side, Paris FC, with Stade Saint-Germain after the team from Saint-Germain-en-Laye, 15km west of Paris, won promotion to Ligue 2.[2] Thanks to some 20,000 subscriptions from individuals desperate to see an elite football club in Paris, Guy Crescent, CEO of Calberson and Pierre-Étienne Guyot, vice-president of Racing Club de France, asked the Sangermanois directors to become part of their project. Paris Saint-Germain Football Club was founded on 12 August 1970.[3] The merger was ratified by the French Football Federation on 27 August 1970.[2]
