PSG might’ve already chosen Thomas Tuchel’s replacement already, we have all the details about the French giant’s possible new coach. 

We were all taken by surprise with PSG’s decision to sack Thomas Tuchel earlier today. The German manager took the French giants to last season’s Champions League final and he was doing an okay job this season. But Basser Al-Khelaifi was never convinced of the coach’s capabilities to make the squad run as he intended. Having players like Neymar or Kylian Mbappe should give you a massive advantage against any rival but it never showed at PSG.

Dominance against any club in Europe was something that we could never experience from Tuchel’s squads. After holding him for a few years, the PSG chairman finally said enough and sacked the German coach. Making this move is always with a concealed intention in the back. This means that Nasser already had an idea of who could replace Tuchel and the choice is not that surprising. 

Pochettino is the man to take the job. 

According to Fabrizio Romano, Mauricio Pochettino is the man chosen to take on the PSG hot seat effective immediately. The Argentine manager’s past as a PSG player left a good relationship with the institution. After getting Tottenham Hotspur to a Champions League final, it’s safe to say Mauricio has the credentials to take on this job without problems.

Pending an official announcement, Pochettino is the man who will coach Neymar and Mbappe during the second half of the season. It’s a new day for PSG and its followers, there’s a new boss in town who will shake things up a bit. We still don’t know how the club’s biggest stars will react to this arrival but we’ll keep you posted about it.
