With this absolutely amazing job done at Monaco whilst they reached the Semi-Final of the Champions League and finishing 2nd in the Ligue 1 with this talent on show set up a brilliant platform for these players to perform right in the shop window.
Now onto the present day at LOSC Lille, Campos has already spent a couple years at Lille, so “What has he done so far?” you may ask, well he's recruited...
Victor Osimhen - £20,160,000 Renato Sanches - £18,000,000 Timothy Weah - £9,000,000
Yusuf Yazıcı - £15,750,000 Jonathan Ikone - £4,500,000 Jonathan Bamba - Free Rafael Leao - Free

Within Campos' 7 years as a Director of Football, he has generated in the region of £400,000,000 (NET) for Monaco FC and LOSC Lille, absolutely amazing figures that will only increase over the next couple of windows.
Despite this offloading of some players at Lille, there’s still an abundance of talent and a lot of value still left in the squad which could be offloaded this coming summer due to the likes of; Bamba, Ikone, Sanches, David, Yazici and Soumare hitting top form this season.
Luis Campos has brought what he did at Monaco to Lille and now they’re currently sitting in 2nd in the league, 2 points off the top of the Ligue 1 table and they sit top of a tough Europe League group with AC Milan and Celtic being in the same group.
Who knows how much profit will be made by Lille over the next couple of transfers windows, but one thing is for sure, Luis Campos is doing another amazing job, and who knows where and what he’ll do next but for sure it will turn to gold for him once again.
