In an interview granted to the Tlfoot program, Luis Campos returned to the beginnings of his project at Paris Saint-Germain. Despite the difficulties in sport and on the transfer market, the football adviser says he is satisfied, even if he mentions a lack of collective sense within the group.
Luis Campos is satisfied with his debut at PSG.
When he arrived last June, Luis Campos arrived with a new project for Paris Saint-Germain. The main idea was to change mentalities within the Ile-de-France club.
A few months later, in a difficult period for the Parisians, the evolution is far from obvious. But the football adviser says he is satisfied.
The limits of the FPF
I don’t like the word “revolution”, it’s not a revolution at all, corrected the Portuguese questioned by Tlfoot. We are trying to set up a new working model. I think it’s positive, it’s a start with good results.
Optimistic, Campos nevertheless comes out of one, or rather two disappointing transfer windows, he who we know for his skills on the transfer market. But the limits imposed by UEFA reduce its room for manoeuvre. I think we tried to be creative to deal with the financial constraints that we knew before coming here, he explained. We have to respect financial fair play but we are ready.
PSG thinks of young people
According to him, the decisions taken are also aimed at promoting the emergence of young people, one of the essential points of the project. I think we made a good plan, said the former manager of Monaco and Lille. It is a plan that goes through the reduction of the number of professional players, which was very important, to open up space for young people in the club who are of high quality, and not to lose them and leave them to other big clubs. Europeans.
If the PSG will leave time for young people? Of course, he confirmed. The coach (Christophe Galtier, editor’s note) understands the project very well, we are very clear. We know very well what we have to do and we are going to do it. In the meantime, Paris is obviously counting on its stars. Campos has confirmed his desire to extend Lionel Messi and assures that Neymar is beyond reproach. Nevertheless, the adviser would like to see a team less dependent on its individualities.
Campos calls for a collective
Big stars are not capable of winning a trophy on their own. They can win one, two or many games. But they need the other teammates who are very important. We need harmony, players with a collective sense. We have made great progress and we must continue to progress. As soon as the referee blows his whistle, we must all be together in the same direction, like a team. It’s the only way to win claimed Campos, aware of the flaws in his team approaching important meetings.
