Paris Saint-Germain president Robin Leproux says many may believe it is his side aim to win the Ligue 1, but it is not.
Paris Saint-Germain president Robin Leproux has admitted there is still a long way to go until his side can be considered genuine contenders for the Ligue 1 title.

The French capital club are currently in second position, five points behind league leaders Lille, but Leproux says the side are aiming to have a strong season rather than win the title.

"You may think that winning the league title is our goal, but it is not," the president told L'Equipe TV.

"If at the end of the season we are close, we will do everything to get the title because it is missed and needed in Paris. But there are a lot of ifs because we can claim it."

The last time Les Rouge-et-Blau won the league was in 1994.
