Coach Christophe Galtier will leave PSG

Thus, the quoted source confirms the information published in the French media, reports AFP.

However, this statement does not come as a surprise, given that PSG did not achieve the main goal of the recently concluded season: to win the Champions League, even if it has a new Ligue 1 title, the 11th in its history, a new record for French football.

A lawyer for the French technician declined to comment when contacted by AFP.

Christophe Galtier, 56, was recruited last summer by Luis Campos, PSG’s football adviser, with whom the coach previously worked at Lille, writes Agerpres.

After a very good start without a single defeat, PSG subsequently showed numerous signs of weakness in their game, suffering a total of ten defeats in 2023. The Parisians were knocked out in the round of 16 of the French Cup and, especially, at the same stage of the Champions League, the competition that remains their biggest dream.

Galtier has repeatedly emphasized the impact of the calendar, with the World Cup being held in the middle of a season after which the team has not played as well.

“The correct analysis you don’t want to do is that there was a PSG before the World Cup and a PSG after the World Cup with very important players who, for some, haven’t played 16-17 games since then,” he stressed to Gaultier in the evening. when his team became champions of France, in Strasbourg, at the 37th stage, alluding in particular to the Brazilian striker Neymar, injured since February.
