Methods and objectives
Christophe has made it clear that he will be there during his stay at PSG “negotiable and non-negotiable things”, with “precise rules that must be respected” regardless of the player. “If there are no compelling reasons not to respect them, he will step aside. This will be done naturally. We are not in the military either. I will never make a decision without taking into account the opinion of others. Most importantly my president and the sports management are with me, “he added.
