Notre Dame is not only a Paris symbol along with Eiffel Tower, it is at the very heart of Paris, the deep centre of France.The meaning is not only religious, it is part of our culture.We dont regard Notre Dame as just a catholic cathedral. Its France, its humanity, its culture, its civilisation. Its like Big Ben or St Pauls in London. Its our heart, our soul, our culture.Asked if PSG are planning to help fund the future efforts to rebuild the cathedral, Bielderman said: I believe so.Paris Saint-Germain could give a percentage of match tickets or anything fans buy to help rebuild.The heart-stopping moment Notre Dame’s 19th century spire collapsed3

The Qatari owners may donate something that should be something they should do.The journalist also believes the club could make a special tribute to the iconic church by changing the emblem on their badge.For one game maybe they could substitute the Eiffel Tower and have the Notre Dame logo on their hearts for their next game.That would be something magnificent.
