French media: Leonardo's position as director in Paris is unstable, and the Paris boss contacts Paraticchi and so on

According to the French media Outlet Foot Mercato, paris sporting director Leonardo's working position is not stable for multiple reasons, and the Paris boss considers other sports executives and has contacted people including Tottenham sports director Paratic.

Leonardo returned to Paris Saint-Germain in June 2019 as sporting director, and he was loved and praised by fans at the beginning of his tenure, but he has lost most of his popularity in recent months. The mismanagement of the club, the tensions with the team's coach and the inaction in the recent transfer window have all been disappointing.

For the Qatari boss of Paris Saint-Germain, there is no agreement on whether Leonardo will remain at the club, and in recent months they have had discussions with other sporting executives, including the current Tottenham sporting director Paratic.

For recent times, Leonardo has often been criticised by Paris fans, as many players have not been able to finally leave in the winter transfer window that has just closed in the past, and there is currently a bloated squad in Paris, such as Kurzawa, who inexplicably extended his contract in 2020, and the young Paris midfielder like Abiembi, who has difficulty getting a chance in the first team and has not been able to join Bayer Leverkusen on loan + purchase options, which also makes the players very dissatisfied.

In terms of transfers in the winter window, Pochettino has explicitly asked the team to bring in France international Ndombele, Tottenham hotspur agreed to loan him, Ndombele seems to be able to fill the vacancy in the Paris midfield, resulting in him joining Lyon on loan. The reason for the failure of this transfer is mainly his tension with Pochettino, who is likely to leave the club at the end of the season.

It also highlights Leonardo's struggles in communicating with the coach, who previously had a poor relationship with Leonardo when he was in charge of Paris, after Tuchel had been asking Paris to bring in Rudiger, and Thiago Silva, who was desperate to keep him but failed to do so.

Another important issue is Kylian Mbappe,who is likely to leave the club after his contract with Paris expires without leaving any transfer fees for the club, forcing Paris president Nasser to take over The Renewal of Mbappe's contract with the club due to tensions between Leonardo and the Mbappe family.
