The Sheikh Nasser Al-Khelaifi there is no passing for one of the “rich fools” of football, as Giulio Onesti called them.
Despite investments worthy of the GDP of a small state, his Paris Saint Germain not only failed to improve his place in the Champions League, where he had reached the final in 2020, but also saw his long domination over the French championship end. year won by Lille.
Inevitably, the sports director ended up in the dock Leonardo, former Milan manager and Inter coach.
The polyglot Brazilian no longer enjoys the full confidence of the Qatari property, which reproaches him for some wrong choices, including the exemption in December of Thomas Tuchel, the coach of the lost final, who five months later made up for it by winning the Champions League … but on the Chelsea bench!
The divorce from the German was also necessary due to the very difficult relations with Leonardo and also for this reason in Paris there is increasing insistence on the possible arrival of the Portuguese Luis Campos, former director of Lille, as well as discoverer of the jewel Mbappè in the days of Monaco.
