PSG’s crazy plan for its future coach

A huge surprise in sight for the bench of Paris SG? This is a possibility that cannot be ruled out according to L’Equipe, for whom Julian Nagelsmann is the favorite, but without guarantee.

PSG is looking for its coach for next season. He even seems to have found it since several European media are announcing a serious rapprochement between Julian Nagelsmann and the Ile-de-France club for an arrival this summer. In any case, this will be done without Thierry Henry, who would not have been reassured by the situation within the club, and would prefer not to throw himself head first into the lion’s den. Not enough to cool the former coach of Bayern Munich, who sees himself very well taking control of such a prestigious team and with the means allowing him to dream of winning the Champions League.

A coach off the radar for PSG?

A bet that in any case pleases the Emir of Qatar, who already had a weakness for Thomas Tuchel, and believes that Julian Nagelsmann can succeed at PSG. Enough to put him in a good position for an upcoming appointment, but this Thursday, L’Equipe is however putting a big brake on it. First of all because there are several currents within the club and the candidacies of Luis Enrique and Xabi Alonso are always taken seriously, even if they have lost their luster. The track leading to Thiago Motta is also appreciated within the club, even if the Italo-Brazilian is perceived as a plan B.

But also because a new element could change everything. Indeed, a source close to the management of PSG confided that there was still a coach almost never mentioned who could change everything in this case. “ It is true that these are coaches with whom the management has discussed. But there is also another coach missing that no one has mentioned yet. “, assured L’Equipe this source who could also try to cover the tracks to save a little time, and to study all the options thoroughly.

In any case, this rarely mentioned manager shouldn’t be Zinedine Zidane either, who refused an approach from PSG according to Le Parisien. It is therefore difficult to know if it is a bluff or a real track kept secret, even if the followers of Paris SG have already decided. They decided to take this information in a humorous tone, suggesting candidates whose names have not been mentioned to train the champion of France. Corinne Deacon, Pascal Dupraz, Antoine Kombouaré, Igor Tudor or Jocelyn Gourvennec are thus part of the jokes of the followers of the capital club. It must be said that they have no choice but to wait for Nasser Al-Khelaïfi to announce the future coach, with, as always, the hope that a finally positive cycle throughout the season will see the day.
