Almost a failed footballer, I chose journalism because it is the only profession that allows you to criticize those who have succeeded. After realizing my dream of playing in the 2010 World Cup (in the press box), I live from my passion with the transfer window and major sporting events as a second family.
At the start of this 2024 summer transfer window, PSG is experiencing an unprecedented period in its management and governance. According to our sources, the general staff has never seemed so in harmony in the construction of its project and its desire to work in the same direction. An unprecedented osmosis in the Qatari era.
The summer of 2022 will remain a founding turning point in the history of PSG and the Qatari era, started in 2011. After having succeeded in the feat of extending Kylian Mbappéwhich nevertheless seemed promised to Real Madrid, Doha decides to change everything to install a new team and a new project. Luis Campos arrives with a very clear objective: to build a squad to win the Champions League within three years. And to lead this group, for at least three seasons, the PSG turns to Luis Enrique. Two years later, the trio Al-Khelaïfi – Campos – Enrique has never worked so well.
Total osmosis
For those who know and follow PSG since 2011 and the arrival of the Qataris at the helm of the club, it is obvious that a change has been taking place behind the scenes for several months. The club, historically disturbed by clan wars behind the scenes, finally discovers the serenity of being able to work with one voice. Our sources all confirm that there is total harmony between the president, Nasser Al-Khelaïfithe sports director, Luis Camposand the coach, Luis Enrique. Illustration with the market summer, in which Paris has established a precise plan and is following it to the letter, without a dissenting voice.
Extensions coming?
If the main objective remains the quest for this famous Champions League and the trio is banking heavily on this 2024-2025 season which will be their third joint attempt, the question of continuing in the future is already under study. As has already been mentioned, Paris is indeed considering extending Luis Enrique. As for Luis Camposdespite rumors of a departure towardsAS Monaco in the event of a hypothetical Saudi project on the Rock, his future could also extend to the Capital. The Portuguese feels very good in Paris, where he has been able to put in place strong things such as having two players in each position, installing a top coach with a high level of requirement or even a salary system with remuneration adapted to the players’ performances (a fixed sum and a salary that increases according to the number of matches played). Under contract until June 2025, Luis Campos is not considering anything other than Paris for the moment.
