PSG is playing smart with Christophe Galtier, and this could well lead to a very nice surprise in the coming days.
Unknown recovery date, coach awaiting his appointment, PSG is doing like last summer, and is taking its time before revealing its organization chart for next season. Mauricio Pochettino had taken forever to be released, while Paris was struggling to negotiate with Nice to recover Christophe Galtier. From now on, the French coach is on the way out, but it is clearly jostling to dismiss him. The coach wants to receive his compensation in full, and Paris hopes to find a lesser agreement in the event of solicitation. It is this situation which had already cost the post of coach of Naples to “Galette”, which saw Rudi Garcia pass him, because free.
Al-Hilal is looking for a prestigious coach
Christophe Galtier negotiated his file with Al-Hilal. Tras la renuncia de Allegri, el extécnico del PSG es el elegido para entrenar al team saudí de Koulibaly, Rúben Neves… Las negotiations ya están marche

Even though it won’t be able to last forever, for the moment, the situation is stuck. But Saudi Arabia, the great architect of this summer transfer window in Europe, can change everything. Journalist for AS, Manu Sainz affirms that Christophe Galtier is currently discussing with Al-Hilal. The formation of Riyadh has sought to bring in Max Allegri or Paulo Fonseca, without success for the moment. The club which tried to bring in Lionel Messi, and recruited Kalidou Koulibaly and Ruben Neves in particular this summer, necessarily has the means to get everyone to agree. This means a golden contract for the former ASSE coach, and also compensation paid to PSG to recover a technician who still has a one-year contract. This also explains why Nasser Al-Khelaïfi does not rush to announce his new coach.
Other noises from Saudi Arabia evoke another formation, namely Al-Shabab, which would be interested in Christophe Galtier, proof that the exit doors are still there. Whether they will suit a coach who is said to be tired after his year at PSG is another question.
