One year and that's it. Christophe Galtier, the coach of Paris Saint-Germain, was informed by the club's football adviser Luis Campos of his departure from the club on Tuesday June 6, AFP learned from a source with knowledge of the negotiations. Negotiations on the terms of the Frenchman's departure are now underway, according to this source.
Asked about his future on Saturday after the defeat against Clermont (3-2) on the 38th and last day of the season, Christophe Galtier said he had an appointment with his leaders at the start of the week. Appointment that took place on Tuesday with Luis Campos.
Recruited last summer by the football adviser, with whom he had already worked in Lille, Christophe Galtier is paying for his team's poor second half of the season. Because after a very successful start, without the slightest defeat, the game of his PSG frayed and the club suffered, in all competitions, ten defeats in 2023, notably failing in the 1/8 finals of the Coupe de France and, above all, the Champions League, the main objective.
Christophe Galtier has repeatedly pointed to the influence of the calendar, with the World Cup being staged in the middle of the season and after which his team didn't play as well. "The fair analysis, which you don't want to do, is that there was a PSG before the World Cup, and a PSG post-World Cup, with very important players who, for some, do not play not for 16, 17 games ", he underlined the evening of the coronation of champion, in Strasbourg during the 37th day, alluding in particular to Neymar, injured since February.
