June 23, (THEWILL) – Renato Sanches of LOSC Lille and Milan Skriniar of Inter, are both targets for new Paris Saint-Germain Sporting Director Luis Campos.
Sanches has been linked to a summer transfer to AC Milan for a while now and the Italian champions had hoped to have signed both the midfielder and his Lille teammate, Sven Botman, earlier in June. As a result of the deadlock in the negotiations, Campos is reportedly eager to step in and bring Sanches to the Parc des Princes this summer.
During the 2020/2021 season when Lille played a remarkable Ligue 1 championship campaign, Campos signed Sanches into the trophy-winning side during his successful tenure as the club’s Sporting Director.
It, therefore, comes as no shock that former Lille manager Christophe Galtier is close to taking over as Mauricio Pochettino’s replacement in Paris. The news is that Galtier has agreed to a two-year contract with the club, with an additional year option.
The PSG president explained why Galtier was picked as the team’s next manager rather than Zinedine Zidane, saying, “We have chosen a coach who will be the best for what we want to put in place.”
