PSG is determined to change course and put an end to last season's problems in a star-studded squad with the sole objective of winning the coveted Champions League and new coach Christopher Galtier has set to work.
He wants "more players and fewer cards" and has established a tough set of rules to put an end to the "vices" that were tolerated during the Mauricio Pochettino era on the bench. The new coach does not intend to tolerate the "privileges" that the Argentine allowed and imposed a demanding internal regulation in the Parisian dressing room, with the aim of improving coexistence, responsibility and emphasizing the culture of work.

One of the first rules concerns punctuality. The coach has set a time for arriving at training that must be adhered to by the entire squad and staff. Thus, the players must report between 8:30 and 8:45 a.m. at Camp des Loges, the club's sports complex, to have breakfast together. No more arriving late after a party, as has happened on several occasions with Neymar.
Anyone arriving late without prior permission or a valid justification will not be allowed to join the group and will have to go home. On the other hand, he established an increasingly common rule within the locker room that targets the use of cell phones. In this case, Galtier prohibited its use at breakfasts and lunches, in order to allow players to interact with each other.
But undoubtedly a crucial point is that players will be forced to mix with each other, avoiding the closed groups that have formed in recent years. This measure is intended to put an end to the clan war that gave the club so many headaches last season. L'Equipe already denounced months ago the reality of a dressing room divided into two clans, that of the French and that of the South Americans, approached by other foreign players. And it is that the so-called 'South American clan', led by Messi, Neymar, Leandro Paredes, Di Maria and Marquinhos caused serious disagreements with Kylian Mbappé.
