Nasser Al-Khelaïfi would have accepted the arrival of Luis Campos at PSG to convince Kylian Mbappé to extend. The relationship between the two men would be strained.
In today’s edition, The Team relates the conditions under which Luis Campos arrived at PSG. The daily explains that the arrival of the Portuguese was not desired Nasser Al-Khelaïfi. Doha, however, would not have left the choice to the Parisian president, in the context of negotiations for the extension of Kylian Mbappé.
Al-Khelaïfi preferred Thiago Motta to Galtier
The daily specifies that relations between Nasser Al-Khelaïfi and Luis Campos were correct after the arrival of the second, but “never intensely hot”. The Qatari would not have forgotten the altercation which took place in the corridors of the Pierre-Mauroy stadium, in April 2019. When the Parisian president had arrested the referee following a decision, the Portuguese (who was then working at LOSC) launched: “We are not in Qatar here! ». NAK turned to him, asking him who he was. Campos replied: ” And you, who are you ? » Al-Khelaïfi would hold a grudge against him.
A second point would annoy the president of PSG. In 2021, Real Madrid would have requested the services of Luis Campos to convince Kylian Mbappé to join their ranks. The Portuguese has had a privileged relationship with the French player since his time at Monaco. Nasser Al-Khelaïfi would consider that Luis Campos convinced the native of Bondy to join the merengue formation.
Finally, Luis Campos would have imposed the choice of Christophe Galtier, while the Qatari wanted to bet on Thiago Motta. The Parisian president would then have knowingly placed Antero Henrique in the hands of the Portuguese, who did not wish to manage the transfer negotiations. The newspaper thinks that Nasser Al-Khelaïfi “knew he was going to hone a rivalry”, while the two men do not get along. So much so that Luis Campos would have let it be known internally that he would leave in January, if Antero Henrique was kept in his post.
Behind the scenes of the Parisian club are a priori more tense than they appear from the outside. Kylian Mbappé’s desire to leave the club, when he feels betrayed, could ignite the powder.
