A year and then goes. “I measure the responsibility of ensuring that PSG have a great season. I prepared for it. If I accepted this position, it is because I am capable of it”, launched with ambition Christophe Galtier during his presentation at the Parc des Princes on July 5th. After a season in the capital, the coach is already going to pack up. According to our information, Luis Campos has announced to him in recent hours that he will no longer be the coach.
This is anything but a surprise, moreover Galtier had no illusions about the fate that would be reserved for him, as he was able to entrust to certain relatives in recent weeks. At the time of doing the accounts, the only Ligue 1, won with a small point ahead of RC Lens (the smallest gap since the arrival of QSI), does not weigh very heavily in the balance against eliminations in eighth of the Champions League final against Bayern Munich and of the Coupe de France by OM.
On the extra-sporting level too, Galtier has gone through a tumultuous season. The sand yachting affair, that of the alleged racism during his visit to Nice or even more recently his premature announcement of the departure of Messi, who does not seem to have pleased PSG, have not raised his popularity rating. No more than the whistles of the Parc des Princes, Saturday evening, and his absence among the best Ligue 1 coaches at the UNFP Trophies. Galtier was the club’s seventh coach to sit on the bench since the Qataris arrived in 2011.
The Parisian board is already well advanced in the search for its successor. Many names have circulated, including the latest, that of Julian Nagelsmann. The former Bayern Munich coach figures prominently in the minds of decision-makers who will now accelerate on this priority file. Luis Enrique is another ticked name from the Doha side who parallels Leverkusen coach Xabi Alonso. At this stage, these are the three names that come up the most to take over.
