This Friday, September 1 at 11:59 p.m., the 2023 summer transfer window officially closed its doors. The opportunity to make a first assessment in particular on the side of PSG, which will have animated the transfer market until the last second with hot files. First obviously with that of Kylian Mbappé, who had refused to extend in Paris and who had initially been excluded from the pro group. Then with the Randal Kolo Muani file which will have been completed in the last seconds of the transfer window when Hugo Ekitike had refused to join Frankfurt.
After more than two months of the transfer window, PSG has therefore greatly turned its workforce upside down. First in the direction of departures with those especially of Neymar, Messi, Sergio Ramos, Paredes, Renato Sanches or even Mauro Icardi while waiting for Marco Verratti. But also and especially in the sense of arrivals with no less than 11 recruits. During this transfer period, Ousmane Dembélé, Randal Kolo Muani, Bradley Barcola, Gonçalo Ramos, Marco Asensio, Kang-in Lee, Cher Ndour, Manuel Ugarte, Lucas Hernandez and Milan Skriniar landed to strengthen the workforce of new coach Luis Enrique . What convince the management to keep Luis Campos, at the center of the debates since his debut as sports director of PSG? Not sure.
Qatar is looking for someone else
The former DS of Monaco had landed last summer in the club of the capital. He was desired by Kylian Mbappé, close to him. But his first choices quickly made people talk, notably with the arrival of Christophe Galtier and then a rather disappointing summer transfer window. And despite the 11 recruits this year, Luis Campos has obviously still not convinced. According to our information, PSG and Doha are already activating their networks to find a new sporting director at PSG.
The high Parisian spheres therefore do not seem really satisfied with the work done by the former sports director of AS Monaco, who is still working as a sports director on the side of Celta de Vigo at the same time. PSG therefore wants to start on new bases and is already thinking of another profile for this position. Internally, the name of former club player Maxwell is highly regarded, for example. The Brazilian has also helped PSG well during this transfer window, which may have been the last for Luis Campos, also very criticized for his closeness to Jorge Mendes during the summer.
