As far as I've heard rumors Christophe Galtier is interested in keeping Neymar on the team for at least one more season. Maybe he wants to use the trio of Messi, Neymar, and Mbappe properly. Neymar's performance last season was not good because he was injured for a long time at the beginning of the season. I think we will get better performance from Neymar if we don't face too many injuries next season.

Immediately after the appointment, Galtier said in an interview that he was interested in Neymar and considered him one of the strongest players, so these are not rumors. I think that's the consensus view of the current state of affairs: PSG can't get rid of Neymar so they have to work with him (after all, he's not bad enough to just put him on the bench). But if PSG finds an option for Neymar to leave the club, I think the management will do it and Galtier's opinion will not play any role.
Even if they want to get rid of Neymar but at the moment there is still no club that really wants Neymar.
For some time ago there were Chelsea and Newcastle who wanted Neymar's services but I think this will only be a rumor considering Neymar's salary is quite large which makes me not sure that Chelsea or Newcastle will want it.

I started seeing the probability of Zidane to manage PSG as lower now. It depends on whether he goes for the France job actually. Deschamps' contract is running on December 31, 2022. Therefore Zidane is going to need to be patient until the World Cup ends. However I wonder if France are even thinking of parting their ways with Deschamps too. Maybe they will extend his contract depending on his success in the tournament. If we take this into account I reckon PSG will continue with Pochettino or maybe they will sign an unexpected name.
Yeah it seems that zidane is waiting for that france team management spot otherwise psg would've signed him i wish he would go to psg at least one season until the end of the world cup i don't think the frensh federation will change a manager before the world cup since it would be risky i think zidane with psg will do wonders and he can even win the champions league.

Why don't we think he can coach both teams at the same time? Maybe Zidane will manage both France and Paris SG teams together? I see him as a coach with a very good technical capacity. I liked it very much in his Real Madrid career. I believe he will be very successful if he becomes the coach of Paris SG.
The truth is that I did not know that it was allowed for him to train a team from any league including the French and the French national team, I think that if it is so, why not the Sheikh give Deschamps a good recognition and place Zidane, I think they have the capacity to do it, and so they assure Zidane, because between PSG and the French national team the national team weighs much more, the fact of having two greats like Mbappé and Benzema together at least would give me I'm a little scared to face them, because I think both players are at their best, and if they get to the World Cup well, they'll do wonders.
We are surely going to see the Messi Neymar mbappe trio again in PSG because Messi is staying in PSG as well as mbappe, and Neymar has finally extended his contract with PSG till 2027.
World Cup is coming and Neymar will not move to another club and face with uncertainty there. In PSG, he does not have a most important position like when he joined them but at least his position is safe in PSG squad. Mbappe takes over the most important role from Neymar in last 2 seasons. The transfer of Messi did not change it in the last season too.
Saying his position is safe for now I think it's too much with his current condition.
At the moment he is facing problems with the club leadership and if you look at the words of the club leader who said something ambiguous some time ago it is clear that this is code that Neymar is not safe enough there.
But indeed I quite agree with you that even though his current condition is not too uncertain he will definitely remain at PSG next season and actually the issue of leaving is now slowly disappearing because no club is brave with Neymar's current salary.

Both Neymar and Messi I don't know what has happened to them, perhaps that flame that makes them shine has made them overshadow the immense talent of Mbappé's youth, when Messi joined PSG I told myself that he was going to do his thing with Neymar because both players They know each other very well, they can make an unstoppable duo, but with a player like Mbappé I would make a deadly trident, but things have not turned out that way. For this World Cup I think there can be favorable changes for these players, I hope so.

I also agree that Neymar won't leave the team by the arrival of new manager. Galtier doesn't want him out of the team already. PSG need all their greatest stars like Mbappe, Messi and Neymar to be able to achieve the Champions League title. I don't say any thing about the Ligue 1 as I see them as the champions of next season as well. PSG will need better strategies to become the champions in the Champions League as well. I don't know if Galtier is capable enough to do this but we will find out.

So, it is going to be an interesting season for PSG again.
I don't know it will be interesting or terrible for PSG. Mbappe with his new contract and more power can react more arrogantly against Messi and Neymar if he won't receive enough support.

The problem is I still don't believe that the new boss "Galtier" is going to be able to bring in results that will be much better compared to what PSG did in the last season. But I do hope that they will be able to do their best. this team has the potential to be one of the best in the world but it did not bring any results like that and in my opinion, the coach is the one to blame.
Galtier is a disciplined coach with strict rules for his players but PSG will be a biggest club he manages so far in his career. He will have a real challenge in PSG with his biggest pressure ever and with many star players there. Even if he can control PSG players, avoid and handle conflicts well, it does not mean he can bring PSG to Champions League title.

At least PSG can hope that Galtier can force their players to be more professional, more disciplined, take care of their bodies better and perhaps perform better.

With so much speculation going around right now, is it possible that we will still see the MNM trio next season?
As far as I know, Neymar future at PSG now seems to be full of question marks, but if later he stays at PSG then I think Galtier must be able to maximize the potential of Neymar later, in my opinion, Neymar is a good player and has qualified skills but indeed his injury has made him less than optimal in playing, besides that, Galtier  is currently starting to be coach from  PSG, may find it difficult to maintain the balance of the PSG squad, especially the front line which is filled with star players who have quite a high ego.
Now time is running out for Neymar because he is not useful as PSG management were expecting even he is one of the play who is in category of special treatment which is creating serious troubles for them there were rumors that he is going to Juventus or any other club now this all ends with new manager is having him in his set-up for this season but surely if PSG not able to achieve their targets then we are going to have some big changes in this season because PSG management already lost their patience, and they want some good results specially in Champions League.
With this all most chances this season is going to be testing case for both Neymar and new coach if something good not happened than surely Galtier is going to lose his job as coach of PSG and Neymar is also going to lose this club and special treatment because no other club going to give things like this to him.

We are surely going to see the Messi Neymar mbappe trio again in PSG because Messi is staying in PSG as well as mbappe, and Neymar has finally extended his contract with PSG till 2027. 
So, it is going to be an interesting season for PSG again. The problem is I still don't believe that the new boss "Galtier" is going to be able to bring in results that will be much better compared to what PSG did in the last season. But I do hope that they will be able to do their best. this team has the potential to be one of the best in the world but it did not bring any results like that and in my opinion, the coach is the one to blame.

PSG have entered a new era by the arrival of Christophe Galtier. While everyone was waiting for a experienced manager like Zidane they brought him here. This is a really big risk that they have taken while they are targeting the Champions League title. However if there is a strong connection between the players and the manager they can still get closer to achieve their target. We need to see the performing under his management first for a while.
Actually, in this case Galtier is also one of the local coaches which I think is quite good.
His performances this season with Nice clearly give something interesting because with a modest squad he was able to bring Nice to a pretty good direction and can compete in the top 5.
But indeed everyone's expectations of Zidane are too high so that when Galtier arrives it is clear that many will doubt it, especially with the comparison that is quite far between Zidane and him.
But I'm pretty sure Galtier will have something decent enough to prove.

I am afraid that Galtier will soon regret his words about Neymar. I don't think Galtier will be a strong authority for Neymar when a football player again has a difficult period in his life and a lot of secular temptations will again interfere with his football career. It's one thing when the head coach is not against the player staying in the team, and it's quite another thing when the head coach says that he wants the player to stay in the team. Here the matter may be that Galtier is well aware that he does not have the last word anyway and simply expresses his wish, because I do not think that the Paris Saint-Germain management will think much if a really worthwhile offer for the transfer of Neymar appears.

Neymar seems to be more likely to stay with PSG next season. From rumors circulating that he will leave this summer, but until now there has been no serious team sending an offer to him. So from this I think he will try his luck again next season with PSG under Galtier coach.
If there is an important note to take down in all of this, it is that Neymar's wages is a problem, that is why no team is sending offers for him, his transfer and wages fee cost a fortune, it is not something 'just any' club can bring out to sign him. The same wages is one of the reason why psg wants to sell him, they are probably tired of spending that money on Neymar. What i know is that if Neymar stays in psg for next season, it is not because the club wants it to happen that way, but because other clubs can't afford him, leaving the two parties with no choice.

Although PSG is a team with strong finances, they are also tired of spending a lot of money to pay Neymar's salary, but Neymar's contribution is
still very far from what PSG expected. Moreover, Neymar is also very prone to injury, and also his behavior is not so good. This made the PSG
management include Neymar in the list of players that PSG wanted to sell. It looks like Neymar will continue to play with PSG next season,
because very few clubs can pay Neymar's very high salary. Moreover, Neymar's contract ended in 2025, so the transfer fee that PSG wanted was
also very large. Of course, there are no teams that are serious about signing Neymar, there are only rumors. PSG's mistake was to give too long
a contract in 2021, so now they are having a hard time finding a club willing to buy Neymar.

I don't expect Neymar to leave after Galtier's arrival. I mean he wouldn't like to see Neymar leaving as it is said in the news. PSG should focus on keeping the team strong instead of selling important players. Maybe Neymar can be an injury-prone player but he is still very useful for the team at the moment. If him and Messi both show better level of performances next season they can increase their chance to reach their main goal finally. I don't doubt Mbappe as I believe he will be the biggest contributor of the team.
Galtier has said that Neymar will be one of the players he wants to play at PSG and that is actually a guarantee there but on the other hand his problems with the higher-ups at PSG are still not resolved until now and this is quite difficult for Neymar.
But even if he leaves it's actually not a good thing especially at this time even though there are still several clubs that want his services but with his salary which is quite large and doesn't want to reduce his salary now it's clearly becoming difficult.

They have a great squad if you take a good look at them. But one key Reasons Real Madrid stand's out in such Champions League victories are all because of team work and team management.
Honestly, I love he's decision to keep Neymar Jr input, no selling no loan deals. This should put he's head down to work with the Coach.
Galtier needs to properly handle and Manage Paris Saint Germans that was what I observed Carlos Ancellotti did to win the Champions League. No body saw that coming from the group stage. Manchester City came closer enough. But PSG has to do more than enough to win the Champions League.

Marseille president, Pablo Longoria said the best decision for the club was to 'break the relationship' with Jorge Sampaoli. The Argentine manager finally resigned despite bringing Marseille to the runner-up position last season!

surprised to hear the bad news from Marseille because they decided not to work with Sampaoli again even though under his tutelage marseille managed to close the season in 2nd place. And whether Mauricio Pochettino will become Marseille new coach, is worth the wait.

I think Galtier wants to ahve the best team possible for his first sting in a giant club. I mean he could be older than some coaches we know, but he never managed a team with so many stars in it before. This means that he will want every hand on deck and will want to do the best he could. No booking, no injuries, no transfers, just work as hard as possibel to get as many points as possible.

If you lose the last game of the season, it doesn't matter how many games you won in UCL, it's the cup that matters. League is easy enough, they would guarantee their championship by week 20 or something, but UCL is the key to their success from now on.

Christophe Galtier also cannot be underestimated, he has also been a football player who defended his country France as a defender, he also spent approximately 15 years as a player at Marseille and at six other clubs.

As a coach he cannot be underestimated, Christophe Galtier won the best Manager award at the Trophees UNFP du football in 2013. Even though he is only a local coach, but he has a lot of experience, it is not wrong for a big club like PSG to accept Christophe Galtier as coach. new.
There is no doubt about his quality and skills because if PSG management hire him then surely they check all details about him and then have contact and now Christophe Galtier is new coach of this giant club in UEFA in place of Mauricio Pochettino.

With this all now he deserves some time from management for having his strategy and giving them good results but still he needs to do something special which have some good impact as now first time he is going to manage the biggest stars of current soccer world, and they are playing for years but sadly fail to give any positive results in Champions League which is main target for PSG and his management. Maybe Christophe Galtier takes some time and then give them good results but nothing wrong about his skills and quality which is having big impact in French League.

Neymar is surely under radar for performing better or PSG management will waste no more time for giving him departure orders because they already lost their patience with his injuries and his attitude which already create few problems for other players as well and just because of few players Zidane rejected this job because he is not happy with PSG management about their special treatment with few players which is having bad impact on overall team.

Discipline is key for success, and we know all big clubs never allow any bad thing from player and if someone done surely he has to pay for this like we have recently Auba in Arsenal, PSG surely need some better environment if they want better results from team.

Neymar will definitely work under his new boss, Christophe Galtier because the new manager have already declare interest in the Brazilian bigname. Moreover, Neymar is a top high-profile player which every manager would want to work with him. Hoping to see PSG as a strong team next season, not just in their league but also in the champions league. Christophe Galtier is a good coach, and he would look forward to add some new players in the tewm.
Neymar is one of models for PSG new skirt in a coming season. If PSG did not have plan for Neymar, they would have used another player. It can be a very last season of Neymar in Paris. If he continues to make PSG board of director disappointed, they will consider to let him go.
Neymar is one of best players but he has yet achieved big things. No World Cup, no Ballon d'Or and since his transfer from Barcelona to PSG, what he made is under expectation based on his transfer value and his very high salary.
last season, Neymar didn't even make the top 3 goalscorers in Ligue 1. so I see PSG just wasting money keeping him at the club. although until now there has been no new issue about galtier but I believe he is a firm coach, with Neymar's character who is drunk and clubbing, I doubt galtier will be patient with Neymar.

As far as I've heard rumors Christophe Galtier is interested in keeping Neymar on the team for at least one more season. Maybe he wants to use the trio of Messi, Neymar, and Mbappe properly. Neymar's performance last season was not good because he was injured for a long time at the beginning of the season.

Yes, last season Neymar was injured for a long time and that case made Neymar not have many goals, after all, the number of goals or not can not be used as a benchmark. Because even Messi got more playing time last season than Neymar but Messi couldn't score as many goals. Last season Neymar played 22 matches in Ligue 1 and made 13 goals and 6 assists, while Messi played 26 matches and only made 6 goals and 14 assists. So in this case I don't think it's about Neymar's poor performance but there is something else that may not be publicized and obviously, Mbappe has the right to be able to choose the coaches and players who are kept and should be sold.
