Who reported that Tony Parker supports Paris Saint-Germain?

The support is reported by outlets, not stated by Tony Parker himself. ParisFans wrote on May 30, 2025, "He showed his clear support for PSG." PSG Talk reported earlier, on May 3, 2020, that "Despite being business partners with Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas, it seems as though Parker is still a fan, or at least holds Les Parisiens, in high regard." That hedged wording is worth keeping in mind: the 2020 report allows that he may simply hold the club in high regard.

How does it line up with where Parker is from?

Parker was born on May 17, 1982, in Bruges, Belgium, and raised in France. He went to INSEP in Paris, and his first pro stop, from 1999 to 2001, was PSG-Racing Basket, before the San Antonio Spurs drafted him in 2001. Paris is Paris Saint-Germain's city, so the reported allegiance sits alongside his French upbringing and his early years in the capital.
