The criminal court in Nice has acquitted the former PSG head coach, Christophe Galtier, in the case of racial discrimination. According to RMC Sport, the court did not find sufficient evidence to support the accusations against the 57-year-old coach.

Previously, the prosecution sought to sentence Galtier to a one-year suspended prison term, impose a fine of 45,000 euros, and ban him from football for three years.

The conflict arose following the publication of correspondence between Galtier and Nice's sporting director, in which the coach reportedly demanded a reduction in the number of players of color and Muslims.

It's worth noting that the French specialist currently manages the Qatari club Al-Duhail.
