On January 7, France's RMC sports star Daniel Ríolo broke the news: before June, Paris Saint-Germain will announce important news, Zidane replaced Pochettino as the manager of Paris! It will be a sensation in world football – Zizou coaches Messi, leads the first Champions League title in the history of the Paris Impact team, and the fourth Champions League trophy of his personal coaching career.
In August last year, Messi left Barca to join Paris Saint-Germain, and Daniel was one of the very few sports journalists who heard the news in advance. During a guest appearance on a football show called "After Foot", Daniel revealed that Zidane will be the manager of Paris in no more than June.
Daniel also revealed that Zidane was not excluded from convincing Mbappe to stay. Mbappe's contract with Paris Saint-Germain expired on June 30, and the French superstar, bent on joining Real Madrid, has refused several renewals from Paris. However, once Zidane becomes paris manager, mbappe's chances of staying on a contract extension will increase significantly.
RMC Sport noted that Paris Saint-Germain has yet to start the process of firing Pochettino and that the Argentine will continue to run The Greater Paris. However, Pochettino has a poor relationship with sporting director Leonardo, and if Zidane takes charge of Paris, Pochettino is likely to succeed Ronnick as Manchester United manager.
The revelations of RMC Sports triggered a sensation in the French, Spanish and British media. After all, once Zidane takes charge of Paris Saint-Germain, it will trigger at least a "chain reaction" of at least 3 giants: Pochettino is expected to join Manchester United, and Real Madrid may not be able to win Mbappe.
After leaving the Real Madrid coaching position last summer, Zidane has been idle at home, spending time with his family and enjoying life. Paris Saint-Germain want to invite Zidane, which is not surprising: Zidane is the "Champions League coach", leading Real Madrid to stage a miracle of three consecutive Champions League titles in 2016-2018. The biggest thing missing in Paris is the Champions League title, and Zidane also knows that if he wants to complete the Champions League summit task, he must keep Mbappe – just to say that in the 2021-22 season, Mbappe's single goal score (18) is more than Messi, Neymar, Icardi, Di Maria combined (17).
