Campos has established himself as a top talent scout, and is credited with transforming Monaco and Lille into Ligue 1 powerhouses in recent years.
He will focus on the ‘performance, recruitment, and organizational aspects of the men’s professional squad’ after replacing former sports director Leonardo.
“I am delighted to be joining Paris Saint-Germain, which I consider to be the most ambitious and exciting club in world football,” Campos said upon his arrival.
“I believe strongly in and share the vision of the Club and I cannot wait to get started to further unleash the great potential of this exceptional Club.”
One of Campos’ first jobs will be to replace Mauricio Pochettino at the club, with reports indicating that the Argentine will be stripped of his duties later this week after failing to impress during his tenure at the Parc des Princes.
