Jose Mourinho, Paris Saint-Germain is accelerating

Info RMC Sport – For several weeks now, Paris Saint-Germain has been looking for a new coach to replace Christophe Galtier. Several names have been put forward. Few coaches have been formally contacted, directly or indirectly. According to our information, Luis Campos has spoken to Jose Mourinho’s agent about his possible arrival this summer. The Roma coach is interested in Paris Saint-Germain.

Luis Campos and Jose Mourinho have known each other since their university days in Portugal. The PSG sports advisor is convinced that the double Champions League winners (Porto 2004 and Inter Milan 2010) are in the best position to make PSG shine next season. In Jose Mourinho’s footnote, we deny any direct contact between the coach and Luis Campos. On the other hand, progress has been made in the negotiations between Campos and the agent of the Portuguese coach, Jorge Mendes. The latter is also an advisor to several club players, Warren Zaire Emery, Renato Sanchez, Vitina, Danilo Pereira or, more recently, El Chadaille Bitshiabu.

The former Tottenham coach does not hide a form of fatigue in secret. Although he loves his life at Roma and rejected advances from Chelsea a few weeks ago, the Special One would like to find a new base closer to their ambitions. Having won the Europa League Conference for his team, he knows it will be difficult for him to do better, given the means at his disposal. Among the clubs that could make him leave Roma are Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid, if the bench becomes free.

It is a favorite of Luis Campos. In other words, if the sports consultant has the final say in choosing a coach, Mourinho will have a foothold in the French capital. We will then have to discuss with AS Roma because he is under contract until 2024. However, the former Lille sporting director does not intend to move forward or speak publicly about the coach’s file before obtaining the title. His relationship with Christophe Galtier deteriorated due to defeats and it was no longer a secret.

Qatari decision makers to decide?

Historically, the PSG coach was often chosen in Doha. This was the case for Unai Emery or Thomas Tuchel for example. Will the leaders leave the hand of Luis Campos after the failure of Christophe Galtier, who chose him himself? Nothing is certain. In Qatar, there have been informal discussions for several weeks with coaches or their representatives, for example Thiago Motta or Julian Nagelsmann. They are appreciated but none unanimous. The Emir of Qatar dreams of Zinedine Zidane, but the issue remains complex.

As for Mourinho, he ticks a lot of boxes but his dressing room fit and volcanic personality raise questions. For some, it’s a good idea to refill and keep the locker room. For others, it can be a hindrance. Can decision makers be persuaded by their sports advisor? It is not excluded. Luis Campos, who was one of the first to campaign for Lionel Messi’s departure at the end of the season, has finally heard his bosses. Perhaps the beginning of the rapprochement is also with Nasser Al-Khulaifi, with whom relations are known for their modernity.

Beyond these considerations, at least in the very short term, Christophe Galtier is no longer planning for the next season. At least in a press conference. He still hopes to continue the adventure if no solution is found. “The first thing I want to say is that I’m very happy to be the coach of PSG. Believe me. I know it’s tough. I never imagined we’d have a second such a difficult part of the tournament, with so many injuries. We’ll make an assessment, the goal is to get Title”, he said on Prime Video after the Parisian victory over Troyes (3-1).
