PSG have overseen a major overhaul this summer. The heavyweight stars of Lionel Messi and Neymar have departed, while 🔑 13 new signings have arrived in their stead. Campos, as the club’s consultant sporting advisor, has helped make it happen.
The 🔑 Portuguese transfer guru has a gilded reputation, and has been linked with posts at many of Europe’s major clubs following 🔑 his success in France. It is not just about trophies; his transfer dealings have resulted in enormous profits. At Lille, 🔑 players he signed who were later sold for big money included Nicolas Pepe, Victor Osimhen and Rafael Leao. At Monaco, 🔑 he sought out Fabinho, Thomas Lemar, Bernardo Silva, Tiemoue Bakayoko and Benjamin Mendy. Combined, the sale of these eight players 🔑 alone helped their clubs recoup a reported €450million (£388m,R$481m). They were all signed for less than €100m.
