Football – Mercato – PSG
Arrived in January 2021 on the PSG bench, Mauricio Pochettino has never really convinced in Paris, so much so that a year and a half later, his departure no longer seems to be in any doubt. The Argentinian still has a contract until 2023, but on the side of Doha, we are already preparing his succession and are casting a wide net to replace Pochettino.
As revealed by le10sport.com back in November, the future of Mauricio Pochettino is clearly a topic on the table in Doha. It must be said that the Argentinian has never put his mark on the workforce of the PSG and above all, his reaction to the rumors sending him to Tottenham Where Manchester United was not at all to the taste of the Parisian leaders. And in the meantime, the elimination against the real Madrid from the round of 16 of the Champions League did not change Qatari plans. The future of Mauricio Pochettino seems more than ever to be written far from PSG although in a press conference, he continues to ensure that he remains the coach of the PSG. ” I’m the coach, right? It’s an obvious question. I am the coach and I am part of the club, like all those who work within the entity. I am part of the organization chart and I am involved in the decision-making process “, assured Pochettino on Friday.
PSG have several ideas to replace Pochettino
However, behind the scenes, the PSG continues to work on the succession of Mauricio Pochettino. The priority option obviously remains the one leading to Zinedine Zidane, as we revealed in recent months. But this track is complicated since the former coach of the real Madrid is waiting for the post of coach of the France team to become available, which could happen at the end of the year if Didier Deschamps decides to leave office. Therefore, this could be a problem for a signature at the PSG. This is how other coaches appeal to Doha… without however being unanimous. According to THE TEAM, Antonio Conte (Tottenham), Thiago Motta (Spezia) as well as Joachim Low (free) are the radars of Parisian decision-makers, but none emerges concretely. This is the reason why the PSG could hold a surprise. Always according to THE TEAMParisians are also interested in Marcelo Gallardo who is on the bench River Plate since 2014. The former Argentine playmaker also has a huge rating in South America where he won two Copas Libertadores and a Copa Sudamericana. A record that does not leave insensitive on the side of Doha. Especially since Marcelo Gallardo went through the PSG in his career as a player between January 2007 and January 2008, and knows Ligue 1 and France perfectly since he also played forAS Monaco (June 2003-January 2007) where he left a mark much more striking than that in Paris. In recent years, his name has also circulated on the side of the FC Barcelona, but he is still awaiting his first European experience. It may be at PSG.
