Since the announcement on Sunday evening of a financial agreement between Thomas Tuchel and PSG, as indicated by the German media Spox and Goal, all that was missing was the club’s statement to formalize the separation between the two parties.
It has been done since Tuesday morning. “After an in-depth analysis of its sporting situation, Paris Saint-Germain decided to terminate Thomas Tuchel’s contract,” PSG announces.
“Thomas has put a lot of energy and passion into his work”
The press release then goes on to detail Tuchel’s career at the head of the club since his arrival in July 2018: “Thomas Tuchel will have led the capital team 127 times, in all competitions, for a record of 95 victories, 12 matches Draws and 20 defeats (342 goals scored, 109 goals conceded). In passing, he won 2 French Championships (2019, 2020), 1 Coupe de France (2020), 1 Coupe de la Ligue (2020), 2 Champions Trophies (2018, 2019) and led Paris Saint-Germain, last August, until the first Champions League final in club history ”.
Then President Nasser Al-Khelaïfi said: “I would like to thank Thomas Tuchel and his staff for everything they have brought to the club. Thomas has put a lot of energy and passion into his work, and of course we will remember the good times we shared together. I wish him the best for his future. “
In the wake of this announcement, the arrival of Mauricio Pochettino and his staff should follow.
