Psg, Leonardo fired: he is no longer the sporting director of the club

The club relieved him of his post at the end of yesterday’s match with Metz

After the three-year renewal of Kylian Mbappé, the relaunch operation for the PSG has started. And already in the night, President Nasser Al Khelaifi began to move the first pawns. On the chessboard of the next project, however, there is no more space for the ds Leonardo, who thus pays for a controversial year. In the next few hours Luis Campos, a former consultant of Monaco and Lille, close to the Mbappé clan, could be appointed in his place.

DYNAMISM

Leonardo thus leaves after three intense seasons. He had arrived in the summer of 2019 to restore momentum to a project that had stalled after a long series of failures in the Champions League and beyond. With Leonardo, PSG immediately found dynamism. In 2020, the Emir of Qatar’s club reached the Champions League final, losing 1-0 to Bayern. But then at Christmas it was decided the sacking of Tuchel who five months later won the Champions League with Chelsea. Last year, Pochettino’s team only stopped in the semifinals.
