After being eliminated from the UEFA Champions League,Paris Saint-Germain nowhavejust the French Ligue 1 to play for this season, and their fans are sick of winning it. Even after losing their past two games, the Red-and-Blues still leadthe French league tableby six points.
The upper management in Paris wants a change and is reportedlythinking about dismissing Christophe Galtier to make it happen.Mauricio Pochettino handed over the reins at Parc des Princes to the 56-year-old former Nice and Lille coach in the summer of 2022.
However, his star-studded side havestruggled for consistency this year and he havefailed once again to bring Champions League success to the French city. Thus, even if Galtier were towin the rest of the league games, hisjob would still beon the line.
Who does Zidane want asNeymar’s replacementatPSG?
Zinedine Zidane, who has been unemployed since he was fired as Real Madrid manager in 2021, is expected to resume his managerial career in the next season. According to rumors, he will return to his native France to take over as manager of Paris Saint-Germain, which had been underwhelmed by Christophe Galtier.
Todofichajes reportthat the Frenchman would take over a troublesome star-studded PSG group that includes Kylian Mbappe, Lionel Messi,and Sergio Ramos, the latter of whom he managed twice while at Real Madrid.Neymar would also be on the roster, although the reportspeculates that Zidane wants to offload the Brazilian star.
It is expected that if the 31-year-olddeparts, Zidane would sign a current Barcelona player to take his place. Despite his stellar play for the Blaugrana this season, Ousmane Dembele has failed to sign a new contract, leaving his future in doubt. The 50-year-old managerplans to make a bid for Dembele if he is unable to negotiate fresh terms with La Liga leaders Barcelona before his current deal expires in 2024. His release clause is a paltry €50 million.
