PSG Mercato: Garétier confirms the trend for Zidane
After his disappointing season, Mauricio Pochettino does not intend to return the apron. Asked by the COPE Chainthe coach of Paris Saint Germain again sealed its future. The Argentinian technician sees himself at least going to the end of his contract which expires in 2023. “I have already said 100% here. Today I tell you 100%. I still have a year left on my contract. The challenges are there and any coach would be motivated. Of course I want to continue. 100%. PSG is a club with ambition. The big disappointment is the Champions League because of the envy of the fans,” explained the Argentine tactician.
While Pochettino firmly believes in his Parisian future, the club’s high authorities are preparing his succession. A trend further confirmed by Geoffroy Garétier. The consultant of Canal Plus ensures that the Ile-de-France leaders are still negotiating to make Zinedine Zidane Pochettino’s successor at PSG. The former Real Madrid manager is currently in the capital. A presence that is enough to further fuel the rumors about his arrival on the bench of the Red and Blue. Some even believe that an announcement could fall by Sunday.
Negotiations still ongoing with Zidane
The consultant nevertheless specifies that nothing will be completed this weekend as announced by certain sources. “We will say that it is buzzing with rumors for the moment. I even read that the formalization of Zidane’s contract at PSG would be for this weekend, I think it’s a bit premature. On the other hand, the sources who tell me about this file tell me that it is still in progress, in negotiations. So, maybe these sources are wrong, but we are talking about a fairly close agreement. The Emir of Qatar is in Paris, everyone is in Paris, it’s probably a coincidence,” assured Geoffroy Garétier. Which believes that “it is a file that is still running”.
