The Neapolitan leader thus mentioned a discussion he had with the former midfielder. “ I had a conversation with Thiago Motta last year in Rome. It lasted 6 hours. He told me that he aspired to coach certain clubs outside Italy”, says de Laurentiis, without mentioning the name of a club. A journalist asked him again if he was talking about PSG, and De Laurentiis confirmed.

There would be a certain logic to having Thiago Motta one day take control of PSG. The Italian international finished his playing career in the colors of the current French champions, and he began his coaching career taking care of the U19s of the Rouge et Bleu.

Thiago Motta then headed to Italy, to manage Genoa, La Spezia and Bologna, his current club. The rest of his trajectory could lead him to a club of higher standing. His name is also mentioned on the side of FC Barcelona, ​​another of his former clubs…
