PSG is close to agreeing on a deal for Nice boss Christophe Galtier take up the vacant manager role and replace Mauricio Pochettino. President Nasser Al-Khelaifi also revealed that he aims to turn the team into an all-Parisian team in the future. Al-Khelaifi also insisted that he had not spoken to Zinedine Zidane directly or indirectly about taking up the managerial job.
“We chose another option. We chose a coach who will be the best for what we want to put in place. We want players who love the club, who love to fight, who love to win. And we want this mentality to spread throughout the club,” PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi said about Christophe Galtier. “You tell us that this is the end of bling-bling in Paris, but Neymar is the prototype of the bling-bling player. Does he still have a future at PSG? What I can tell you is that we expect all the players to do much more than they did last season. Much more!”
“They all have to be at 100 percent. Obviously, we weren’t good enough to go far. For next season, the objective is clear: work every day at 200%. Give everything we have for this shirt, give the maximum and we’ll see the result. We must become humble again. We have to change to avoid injuries, suspensions, and fouls that turn a match upside down,” he added. “We have to stop saying: ‘We want to win this and that and that’. We build. You have to be disciplined, on and off the pitch. Anyone who wants to stay in their comfort zone, who doesn’t want to fight, will stay on the sidelines. And we have to create a real team and find a real collective spirit. That will be the mission of the new coach. We want players who are proud to represent PSG and ready to fight every day.”
