According to ESPN sources, PSG sporting director Luis Campos Galtier said on Tuesday that he has been sacked by the club and that former Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann will continue talks with the club.
Sources added that the club have also held talks with former Spain and Barcelona coach Luis Enrique but have now made Nagelsmann their main target as the Germany manager is keen on supporting Thierry Henry as his assistant .
There is growing confidence that an agreement can be reached for Nagelsmann and Henry to join the French champions.
Galtier joined PSG last summer after guiding Nice to ninth place in the 2021/22 season and has been in charge of Lille and Saint-Etienne, among others.
Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos are also set to leave the club this summer after their contracts expire. Sources told ESPN in May that Neymar is also ready to leave PSG in the summer and that the club are ready to let him go if they receive a suitable offer.
