Barca president Bartomeu impressed by PSG's progress

Josep Maria Bartomeu believes Paris Saint-Germain is already a "great vintage" and is predicting the club to become a major force in Europe.

Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu has praised the work done by Paris Saint-Germain's owners and believes the club will soon translate its domestic dominance into Champions League success.

Since the takeover by Qatar Sports Investments, PSG have become the powerhouse of French football. It is on course to win Ligue 1 for a fourth season in a row, already holding a 21-point lead over nearest rival Monaco.

Laurent Blanc's side has also made it through to the knockout stages of the Champions League this season, and will take on Chelsea in the last 16 of the competition.
