Yeah, I never got the impression that Wenger was above having dealings with these sorts of people. Always found it odd how he was going on about FFP here but seemed excited and involved with the PSG project.
not odd because by that time wenger didn't care about winning at that level and the PSG project wasn't a threat to arsenal. but domestically clubs like city and chelsea made it harder to get top 4.
From a self interest point of view sure, it makes perfect sense. But whenever he talked about FFP and self sustainability he seemed passionate about it and I used to view him as a man of principle, but when it came to PSG it was as if he'd turn a blind eye to all that.
In the end I think he's just someone who loves football. FFP would make the PL more balanced and attainable, but money was the only thing that could ever turn PSG into a power house and help French football become relevant.
