Paris St. Germain has yet to officially confirm the removal of Thomas Tuchel. There is no longer any doubt that the days of the German coach in the French capital are numbered. The reasons for the separation are varied and complex.
On the night of December 23 and after a 4-0 win against Racing Strasbourg, Tuchel and the team were informed. And unlike the sports management team headed by sports director Leonardo, the PSG cabin seems to doubt the feeling of firing the coach.
Team in shock
According to a report in the newspaper Le Parisien, the team wavered between one “State of shock” and one “Form of misunderstanding”when the separation from Tuchel was announced. The ‘L’Équipe’ specifies that the separation time especially surprised the cabin. Parts of the players should not understand that the separation occurred before the Christmas break and about a month and a half before the important Champions League tie against FC Barcelona.
Although there were also points of friction between Tuchel and the team, the 47-year-old had the support of the team, including star players like Kylian Mbappé and Neymar.
Mbappé says goodbye
He was also the first who indirectly confirmed Tuchel’s farewell with an Instagram post. “Unfortunately, that is the law of football, but no one will forget their time here. You have written a beautiful chapter in the history of this club and I thank you, coach. “writes Mbappé.
Now the Paris team has to quickly overcome its state of shock. On January 6, PSG have to play in Ligue 1 against AS St. Étienne. Mauricio Pochettino is expected to be on the sidelines.
