Luis Campos arrived at Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2022, replacing sporting director Leonardo, but with a special role as “soccer advisor”. His track record is a regular topic of debate, and rumours of a departure have been circulating for months, along with those of a contract extension. Le Parisien reports that the sports consultant has received an offer of 20 ME per year from Saudi Arabia to take over the management of his national team, but that he wishes to remain in Paris and is giving priority to the Paris club.
“In Paris, negotiations appear to be at a standstill.
“A solid gold contract. It all came to a head last week in Geneva, Switzerland. On either side of the table were representatives of Luis Campos, PSG’s sporting advisor, and those of the Saudi Arabian national team, hosts of the 2034 World Cup.
At stake is an offer of 200 million euros over ten years – 20 million a year – to structure and organize the future national team as he sees fit, with the aim of taking it to the semi-finals of the competition.
The Portuguese leader must give an answer before… December 31, 2025. He has therefore not signed this document, even though he gives his priority to PSG. In Paris, however, negotiations appear to be at a standstill.
2 Premier League clubs also interested.
In addition to Saudi Arabia, Arsenal have been in contact with the Portuguese’s entourage, as have Chelsea, who have been courting him for some time. ”
Campos likes projects, and of course the 20 ME a year contract must appeal to him. At PSG, he also has a good situation to work in, and so far the results have been pretty conclusive. With the exception of Kylian Mbappé’s big failure, he is showing that he can build a team with good profiles.
Players are quicker to leave when they are undesirable, and above all, he has introduced a policy of variable salaries. However, the team has not yet succeeded in winning its first Champions League, and the turmoil at the Parisian club could also make him want to go elsewhere.
