PSG to sack Pochettino and bring in former Chelsea coach
The latest report has revealed that French club Paris Saint Germain PSG are planning to sack Mauricio Pochettino as the club’s manager.
Le Parisien reports that the French club want to bring in former Chelsea and current Tottenham Hotspur coach Antonio Conte as Pochettino’s replacement.
This is coming after Pochettino led PSG to the Ligue 1 title on Saturday, following a 1-1 draw with Lens.
However, despite this, Pochettino has failed to impress since he was appointed in January 2021.
The Argentina international has not delivered the Champions League, which is the trophy PSG wanted the most and failed to win the league last term.
PSG have also suffered defeats in the French Cup and French Super Cup this season.
Pochettino, who has one year left on his current contract, will now be dismissed “imminently”.
It’s believed the club’s board want him to leave, and he’s open to an exit this summer.
His compensation package would cost €15million.
