On Thursday morning, the news exploded like a bomb in the international sports press: Thomas Tuchel was removed from his post as head coach of Paris Saint-Germain!
The news was first reported by Bild, the information has been confirmed by RMC Sport, and it was also reported by the main French sports daily, L’Équipe.
As they write, Leonardo, the sports director of the Paris club, and Tuchel were not getting along and did not agree with the transfer policy. The Brazilian sporting director’s decision can raise a lot of dust in the locker room, as Tuchel has been the most popular head coach among players since Carlo Ancelotti.
Well-informed RMC Sport journalist Mohamed Bouhafsi knows that although Massimiliano Allegri was also nominated for the bench, Leonardo’s decision was ultimately Mauricio Pochettinóra, fell to a former club player who played football for PSG between 2001 and 2003. The Argentine specialist has worked as a manager for Espanyol, Southampton and Tottenham so far, leading the London side to the Champions League final in 2019.
Tuchel has worked as PSG’s head coach since the summer of 2018, and his contract would have expired next summer. The German manager has won two league titles in the last two seasons, one in the French Cup and the League Cup, and two in the French Super Cup, and reached the final with the band in the BL last season. . The Parisians are currently in third place in Ligue 1, albeit just one point behind Lyon and Lille.
Zsolt Lőw is (was) a member of Thomas Tuchel’s staff. With the expulsion of his colleague, it is almost certain that the Hungarian specialist will not stay at PSG either, since at that time he arrived in Paris at his call.
