He ruined Lionel Messi in Europe, now he does the same with another Argentine in Asia

Lionel Messi remains one of the best players in the world at 36 years old. The Argentine star lives in a state of grace at Inter Miami, where he is happy playing soccer and enjoying the city with his family. In addition, he maintains high demands when he travels to play with the Argentine National Team, where he shares a team with his teammates who shine in the European leagues. In addition, it faces high-level rivals in teams such as Uruguay, Brazil and Colombia.

However, before experiencing this moment of great happiness, he had to go through adverse moments at Paris Saint Germain. Although they formed a luxury attacking trident with Kylian Mbappé and Neymar Junior, PSG could not get past the round of 16 in the 2 Champions Leagues they played together, which meant great disappointment for the club because that competition is the maximum objective of the fans and the leadership.

The man who led that all-star team in Messi's second year as a PSG player was Christophe Galtier. The French coach could not achieve good results in the Champions League, the club's great objective. Now Galtier is far from the football elite, as he has just been confirmed as the new technical director of Al Duhail in Qatar. The Frenchman seems to prioritize money over sports at this stage of his career. Furthermore, an outstanding fact is that his landing in the Middle East cost another Argentine soccer legend his job.

The coach who was left without a job in Qatar

To make room for Christophe Galtier at Al Duhail, the club fired Hernán Crespo. The now coach was a great soccer player who knew how to shine in the Argentine National Team. Furthermore, as the great striker that he was, he scored a large number of goals in important clubs in Europe such as Milan and Chelsea.

Now Crespo is technical director and achieved success directing Defensa y Justicia in Argentina. With the humble team he managed to win the Copa Sudamericana 2020, the second most important competition in South America. In Qatar he was doing very well, but he was fired despite having won three trophies. Furthermore, they won 34 of 48 games, with only 8 losses and 6 draws.
