In regards to replacing Christophe Galtier as head coach at Parc des Princes for the upcoming season, Jose Mourinho has rejected any inquiries from Paris Saint-Germain.
Galtier is under a lot of pressure at PSG after watching his team lose in the first round of the Champions League, thus prolonging the squad's fruitless quest for European success.
PSG has struggled in the Coupe de France as well. And while another Ligue 1 championship is imminent, it hasn't exactly been as compelling as hoped or anticipated.
Mourinho, on the other hand, has at least partially restored his reputation after things swiftly went south for him at Manchester United and a stint at Tottenham broke his outstanding streak of winning at least two championships at every club he had been at since being hired by Porto in 2002.
The Portuguese arrived in Roma in 2021, and they ended the previous campaign by winning the inaugural Europa Conference League championship. His squad is currently playing in the semifinals of the Europa League and is still in the running to finish in the top four of Serie A and qualify for the Champions League.
There have been rumors of a reunion in the French capital because of this and the fact that Luis Campos, a longtime ally of Mourinho's, has joined PSG as a football advisor during the past 11 months.
Campos worked with Mourinho as a scout and analyst at Real Madrid after coaching against him more than 20 years ago in Portugal. Since then, he has done a lot of work in France and put together the teams for Monaco and Lille, who won Ligue 1 in 2017 and 2021, respectively. These two teams are the only ones to have won the title outside of PSG in more than ten years.
Mourinho, though, needs to be contacted by PSG if he is something that they are interested in.
