Antoine Arnault has been named president of Paris FC, the French football club announced on Tuesday. The appointment marks a significant move for the Ligue 2 side, bringing in the son of LVMH chairman Bernard Arnault to lead the club's strategic direction.

Arnault, who currently serves as CEO of Berluti and holds executive roles within the LVMH luxury group, assumes the presidency effective immediately. The club confirmed the news through a statement credited to LVMH, signaling the luxury conglomerate's deepening involvement in French football.

Paris FC, which plays its home matches at Stade Sébastien Charléty, has been seeking to establish itself as a stable top-flight contender. The club finished seventh in Ligue 2 last season and is currently competing in the 2026-27 campaign.

The appointment follows a period of restructuring at the club, which has been majority-owned by the Arnault family's holding company Agache Sport since 2020. Red Bull GmbH holds a minority stake.
