The chapter of Galtier's PSG comes to an end.
The chapter of Galtier's PSG comes to an end.
Paris Saint-Germain's (PSG) current situation reminds me of the poem "Haradhon er Dash Duti Chhele" by Yogindranath Sarkar. Just like Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos, two-star footballers, PSG's coach position is now vacant. After the end of the season, coach Christophe Galtier lost his job.
Lequipe, a French media outlet, has reported about the separation between Galtier and PSG. The French media has mentioned that Saturday evening's match against Clermont Foot will be Galtier's last match as PSG's coach. After that, he will no longer be associated with PSG. Last year in July, Galtier was appointed as PSG's coach on a two-year contract. However, a decision was made to part ways with him even before completing one year. The search for a new coach has already begun by the club authorities.
At a press conference held the day before yesterday, Galtier confirmed Messi's departure from PSG. The PSG coach said, "I have had the opportunity to coach the best player in the history of football. The match against Clermont Foot at Parc des Princes could be Messi's last match." During that press conference, he was asked about his memories with Galtier, just like Galtier has forgotten about PSG. He responded, "Without any doubt, it was a tackle against Bayern. After that, there were many more matches. Those were really good."
Under Galtier's coaching career of almost a year, PSG played 49 matches. They won 34 matches, drew 6 matches, and lost 9 matches. During his tenure, PSG won the 2022 Trophy des Champions and the 2022-23 Ligue 1, both of which were significant trophies.
