Leonardo and Tuchel lengthen the discrepancies at PSG – Pledge Times

Nor the ranking at his first Champions League final was able to guarantee the continuity of Thomas Tuchel at PSG. The German manager faces his more than possible last season in Paris amid an escalation of discrepancies with the directive which has even led to the possibility that Merry was his replacement in the Parisian team.

Sources close to the PSG confirm this in Le Parisien Tuchel continues to be in the sights of fans, managers and players. Some members of the squad are still perplexed by the changes in management of the PSG manager in the Champions League final leaving Mauro Icardi without playing and entering the Choupo-Moting first. He has not yet managed to gain the team’s trust, although he has resolved his differences with Mbappé, after having complained in several games for taking him off the pitch.

Undoubtedly, the issue that sparked the most debates in France was that of Thiago Silva. After the French Cup final between PSG and Saint-Étienne on 24 July, Tuchel left a hint to Leonardo stating that “anything can happen in football”, in relation to the possible extension of the former Parisian captain’s contract. Leonardo was silent all summer and spoke only to officially announce his departure from the French capital.

Therefore, Leaving Icardi with no minutes in the Champions League final was intended as a declaration of intent from Tuchel to Leonardo. Given that the sporting director had not renewed Cavani and had invested more than 60 million euros in the Argentine striker, the German decided to give minutes to Choupo-Moting before the former Inter Milan in the biggest match in PSG history, further widening the differences between the two teams. That’s why, if Tuchel doesn’t win the Champions League in May, his trip to Paris could end after three erratic seasons.
