Bande son officielle de la Coupe du Monde de la FIFA, Qatar 2022™ : le Qatar accueille le monde au son d’Arhbo

·Arhbo, dont le clip a été diffusé en avant-première vendredi dernier sur YouTube, est le nouveau titre de la bande son officielle de la Coupe du Monde de la FIFA, Qatar 2022™. Il sortira cette semaine.

·La chanson est le fruit de la collaboration entre l’artiste portoricain plusieurs fois disque de platine Ozuna et le rappeur franco-congolais Gims, premier artiste francophone à participer à la bande son officielle de la Coupe du Monde

La stratégie FIFA Sound inclut de nombreuses autres sorties musicales d’ici au coup d’envoi de la compétition

Ozuna et Gims se sont associés à la FIFA pour créer Arhbo, le nouveau single de la bande son officielle de la Coupe du Monde de la FIFA, Qatar 2022™. Après l’immense succès de Hayya Hayya (Better Together), le deuxième titre de la bande son officielle sera disponible en streaming dès le vendredi 26 août. Le clip d’Arhbo, diffusé vendredi sur YouTube, a déjà séduit de nombreux amateurs de football et de musique.

Pour RedOne, expert artistique pour la FIFA : « C’est un honneur de contribuer à la Coupe du Monde au Qatar. Nous devons montrer à quel point le football et la musique sont indissociables et combien l’événement est un hymne à la fête et au bonheur d’être ensemble. Ces événements sont rares ! C’est pourquoi il faut en profiter au maximum. Et c’est exactement ce que cherche à transmettre le titre Arhbo. ‘Bienvenue à tous, peu importe d’où vous venez ! Rassemblons-nous et dansons ensemble !’

Dérivé de « Marhaba », Arhbo signifie « bienvenue » en argot qatarien. La chanson est une ode à l’unité et à la collaboration qui caractérisent l’organisation de cette édition historique de la compétition phare du football, qui se déroulera à partir du 20 novembre prochain au Qatar.

La bande son officielle de la Coupe du Monde de la FIFA, Qatar 2022™ vise à rassembler artistes, supporters et joueurs autour de leur passion pour le ballon rond, le tout sur fond de rythmes entraînants qui illustrent ce que peut générer une association parfaite entre la musique et le football. Dans la même lignée, le nouveau titre dénote l’hospitalité qatarienne, donnant un avant-goût de l’ambiance qui règnera dans le pays dans moins de trois mois.

Pour Gims : « Arhbo est un chaleureux message d’hospitalité. Le terme veut dire ‘bienvenue’, mais il signifie bien plus que ça. C’est une célébration de notre présence ici. Arhbo met en musique ce que sera l’ambiance au Qatar au moment de la Coupe du Monde, l’un des plus grands rassemblements de la planète. Tout le monde, au Qatar comme ailleurs, pourra vraiment la vivre grâce à cette chanson. Ce sera comme si nous étions tous au Qatar ! Bienvenue !

Ozuna a quant à lui ajouté : « Je pense que le terme ‘Bienvenue’ veut tout dire. Peu importe ce qui amène une personne à un moment donné, le fait est qu’elle le vit et qu’elle doit se sentir comme chez elle. On dit bien que la maison est là où se trouve le cœur, non ? À toutes celles et ceux qui se rendront au Qatar ou qui y seront de tout cœur, nous leur disons : « bienvenue chez vous !

À l’approche du coup d’envoi de la compétition, d’autres titres élaborés par divers grands artistes seront dévoilés. La bande son officielle se veut la plus éclectique possible, conformément à la stratégie FIFA Sound adoptée l’année dernière.

Arhbo, produit par RedOne et enregistré dans les studios Katara à Doha, sera disponible sur toutes les plateformes de streaming à partir du vendredi 26 août. Visionnez le clip du nouveau titre sur la chaîne YouTube de la FIFA.

Le Botswana et la Mauritanie progressent au milieu de l’accalmie

·Le Brésil reste leader du Classement Mondial FIFA/Coca-Cola

·Calme plat dans le Top 20

·Le Botswana réalise la meilleure progression en termes de points



Avec cinq tournois majeurs organisés aux quatre coins de la planète, le football féminin international a fait les gros titres durant cet été 2022. 58 matches internationaux ont tout de même ont été disputés côté hommes, principalement en Afrique et en Asie.

Les changements au sein du Classement Mondial FIFA/Coca-Cola d’août sont certes rares, mais un duo composé de la Mauritanie (107ème, plus 3) et du Botswana (146ème, plus 3) tire tout de même son épingle du jeu. Ces deux équipes grimpent de trois rangs et signent ainsi les meilleures progressions en termes de places.

Dans le Top 50, rien n’a bougé ou presque : le Brésil (1er, - ), la Belgique (2ème, - ) et l’Argentine (3ème, - ) composent toujours le trio de tête tandis que leurs poursuivants immédiats se suivent dans le même ordre qu’en juin dernier. Seuls la RI Iran (22ème, plus 1) et le Qatar (48ème, plus 1), hôte de la prochaine Coupe du Monde de la FIFA, progressent d’une place.

Au-delà du Top 100, outre les Zèbres et les Mourabitounes, le Mozambique (116ème, plus 2) et l’Angola (120ème, plus 2) se replacent, tout comme les Bermudes (168èmes, plus 2), sachant que les nombreuses échéances internationales à venir, en septembre notamment, accoucheront nécessairement de changements plus significatifs.

Paris Saint-Germain Academy continues its strategic expansion in the Middle East by opening a school in the United Arab Emirates

A Paris Saint-Germain Academy is opening in Dubai and is getting ready to welcome its first set of young players from September onwards, for the 2022-2023 season.

The mission of the PSG Academy UAE is to provide young residents of Dubai (aged 4 to 18) with a healthy and ambitious sporting environment so that they can develop their technical and personal skills in weekly training sessions, including after-school training. The football school has set up partnerships with the region’s schools and will also offer summer camps and personalised coaching.

In the long term, the project will be rolled out across the whole United Arab Emirates.

The PSG ACADEMY UAE benefits from solid expertise as it will be run by Thallium Consulting, a consultancy firm based in the Emirates for the last 12 years, which already has several years’ experience running football academies in Dubai. The technical staff will be made up of enthusiastic, qualified and experienced coaches – some of whom are former professional players – who have been taught the Paris Saint-Germain training methods.

The Academy will be open to boys and girls, as well as disabled players in specially-designed training sessions.

A grand opening attended by the media, officials from Paris Saint-Germain and some of the club’s former star players will be held in January 2023.

With this locally-based expertise and ongoing guidance from the club itself, the PSG ACADEMY UAE has the goal of becoming the best football school in the United Arab Emirates.

This marks the start of a new chapter for the Paris Saint-Germain Academy, whose aim is always to provide an outstanding environment where young players can benefit from the club’s unique training methods, to enable them to develop their skills while having fun.

PSG AND THE VILLAGE INTERNATIONAL DE LA GASTRONOMIE COMBINE EATING WELL WITH SOLIDARITY

For every ticket purchased, the Village International de la Gastronomie will donate €1 to the Paris Saint-Germain Endowment fund to help finance the “Cantines Solidaires” project.

Food-lovers and sports fans from all over the globe will flock to the foot of the Eiffel Tower from the 1st to the 4th September 2022 for the 5th edition of the Village International de la Gastronomie. Over four days, more than 40,000 visitors will have the opportunity to discover culinary delights from 170 different countries and chat to exhibitors about eating healthily.

This year for the first time, the Village International de la Gastronomie supports the Paris Saint-Germain Endowment Fund. By buying a ticket to the event, visitors will help finance the “Cantines Solidaires” operation, which was set up by the endowment fund last year. This initiative – which involves distributing food to students in need, with the help last season of the StudHelp association and the Communauté écotable! – is set up at the Parc des Princes. Two editions have already been organised and enabled 400 students to enjoy a meal made on site by professional chefs, as well as participating in fun sports activities alongside young Paris Saint-Germain players.

“I am very proud to see the Village International de la Gastronomie team up with the Paris Saint-GermainEndowment Fund,” announcedAnne-Claire Descombin, President and founder of the Village International de la Gastronomie. “Food is a gateway to different cultures, a fun way of passing on values, bringing people together and helping people to integrate by sharing a culinary experience. It made sense to help the ‘Cantine Solidaire’ project, which, for us, is one of the most symbolic initiatives run by the Paris Saint-Germain Endowment Fund.”

“We would like to thank the Village International de la Gastronomie for its support of the ‘Cantines Solidaires’ programme,” added Candice Prévost, Operations Manager for the Paris Saint Germain Foundation. “In both editions held to date, the ‘Cantine Solidaire’ has helped students in need by providing them with food and essential products. This donation will enable us to continue developing this programme and to invite even more students to enjoy a day at the Parc des Princes.”

Always showing an interest in the actions led by the Paris Saint-Germain Endowment Fund, the Village International de la Gastronomie decided to support one of its newest programmes with a donation made as part of a cause-related marketing operation.

Paris Saint-Germain, through the many programmes run by its Endowment Fund, is thus using gastronomy as a tool for teaching children and young adults about the importance of nutrition and taste.

About the Village International de la Gastronomie

The Village International de la Gastronomie, whose patron is French President Emmanuel Macron, is the world’s largest event dedicated to popular cuisine. The Village’s stands are manned by national embassies and foreign communities based in Paris, who cook together for the many French and foreign visitors. The tens of thousands of people who have visited the Village since 2016 have enjoyed eating, drinking, dancing and learning about other peoples’ cultures. Created by Anne-Laure Descombin, the Village has become a wonderful showcase for world cuisine by giving the exhibiting countries an opportunity to promote their culinary traditions in a unique setting.



About the Paris Saint-Germain Endowment Fund

Founded in 2013, the Paris Saint-Germain Endowment Fund gathers donations that give fresh impetus to programmes rolled out for the benefit of disadvantaged children. Through sport and its values, we look to act in a positive, dynamic and targeted way to help young people in need. In the process, we bring comfort to sick children so that they can put their illnesses to the back of their minds for a while, encourage children to help one another and stick together, offer a programme that helps adults find their feet socially and workwise, and provide comfort for people in precarious situations. The funds we collect are used to implement actions that benefit children and young adults. It is thanks to this support that we have been able to increase the number of programmes rolled out and the number of children they help.
