Galtier and PSG, it’s a torrent of tears

The PSG wanted to play the smartest with Christophe Galtier, and finds itself with its beak in the water. The French coach too.

When there is a problem, a series of bad results or a season that goes badly, it is always the coach who toasts. Often, the dismissal is announced quickly, even if a procedure must follow its course for compensation for the remaining years of contract, or even for the damage suffered. But in Europe, and in particular in England or Italy, a new system has seen the player allowing the player to replace the targeted coach, without firing him. By keeping him under contract, of course we must continue to pay him to do nothing with the same salary as before, but if a club wants to recruit this technician, he will have to find an amicable agreement and leave without claiming all his of. This is what PSG hoped to do with Christophe Galtier, who will surely give up his place this summer.

Napoli did not wait another minute

Naples was courting him and Paris was already seeing itself recover a small sum to let go of its trainer with another year of contract. For his part, the former Lille coach was in very advanced discussions, with a salary of 5 million euros and a two-year contract offered to him. It will not be because the truculent president Aurelio De Laurentiis took the lead in announcing that Rudi Garcia would be his coach. The former coach of OL and OM will have a salary half as large, or 2.5 million euros, and Galtier can therefore forget his hottest track. PSG also, since its current trainer, still in place, intends to recover all its allowances down to the smallest penny, now that its main exit track is evaporating. Especially since the Italian press is stirring the knife in the wound, and explains that Galtier was indeed Naples’ priority, but that the recent winner of the Scudetto saw that the file would be too complicated to settle with PSG to achieve its ends.
