Pre-season
Ahead of the 2022–23 season, it was announced that Leonardo Araújo , sporting director , had been dismissed,[ 1] and that star forward Kylian Mbappé had signed a contract extension, choosing to remain at the club.[ 2] The season is the first without the services of Ángel Di María at Paris Saint-Germain since the 2014–15 season .[ 3] On 31 May, PSG completed the permanent transfer Portuguese left-back Nuno Mendes , who signed with the club until 30 June 2026.[ 4] On 10 June 2022, Luís Campos joined the club as Football Advisor, being responsible for recruitment of new players.[ 5] Campos's first signing of the summer was Portuguese midfielder Vitinha , in a transfer worth €41.5 million.[ 6] On 5 July 2022, Christophe Galtier replaced Mauricio Pochettino as the club's head coach. The signing of which lended a lot of credibility to the club/s new policy of no "bling-bling". This was stated by the club's president at a presentation for the new head coach.[ 7]
On 17 July the club confirmed the signing of Hugo Ekitike initially on a loan deal, which included a clause for a permanent transfer to the club.[ 8] The signing was quickly followed by reports that club were now free to pursue alternative targets in a focused manner, specifically reaching out for players from the Paris region. Though initial reports were skeptical, the club quickly proved this to be true by signing Nordi Mukiele from RB Leipzig .[ 9] In continuation of the club's new transfer policy, the club then launched a bid for Renato Sanches who played for Lille . After a few weeks of negotiations the player was then signed on 4 August.[ 10]
