Chelsea want to hire PSG advisor Campos as squad planner

Reports from “Parisien” & “Times”

With the change of coach from Thomas Tuchel to Graham Potter, the new owner of Chelsea FC, Tedd Boehly, has taken the first decisive step towards realigning the Blues. The next one should follow immediately: With a fat purse and a princely salary, champion maker Luís Campos, currently strategic advisor at PSG, could form the next squad for the Londoners.

A few days ago the English newspaper reported “TheTimes“ by interest from Chelsea and its US owner Boehly. Now concretized in France “Le Parisien“With reference to his own information: Campos is said to have an offer of 8 million euros to design the next two transfer windows on the Thames – the coming winter changeover period as well as those in summer. The former success factor of LOSC and AS Monaco should therefore be given a free hand by Chelsea and, according to the newspaper, be able to invest 300 million euros. Already in the past summer window, a good 280 million euros had been invested in new players at Stamford Bridge.

However, Campos has only been active at PSG itself since this summer, but an engagement in London may not have to affect his contract in the French capital. While it is said that Campos should leave Paris for Chelsea, there is also no clause that would theoretically rule out additional work alongside the post at PSG. Campos should only have a hand in the game if there are more than three clubs at the same time. The Portuguese has been a highly renowned squad planner for years. He was responsible for both the AS Monaco squad that snatched the title from PSG in 2017 and for the champion squad of LOSC Lille 2021.
