The departure of Mauricio Pochettino from Santa Fe from Paris Saint Germain (PSG) will be officially announced in the next few hours by the entity from the French capital, which will simultaneously present his replacement, the Nice coach, Christophe Galtieras revealed by the most important local media.
Indeed, as anticipated by the newspapers L’Equipe and Le Parisien, during this Tuesday the authorities of PSG and Pochettino reached a compensation agreement for 15,000,000 euros to terminate his contract that expires just within a year.
This compensation also includes financial compensation for the two field assistants of the former Tottenham Hotspur technical director (where he could return), Miguel D’Agostino and Jesús Pérez, plus the goalkeeping coach, Toni Jiménez, and the physical trainer, who is nothing more and nothing less than his son, Sebastiano Pochettino.
The end of the story for Pochettino began to appear clearly when five days ago the Parisian club released the previous sports director, the Brazilian Leonardo, to replace him with the Portuguese Luis Campos, who has among his greatest achievements in this management having achieved the renewal of Kylian Mbappé’s contract when he was about to leave Monaco at the time.
Campos met in the last few hours with Maximiliano Allegri, but the Juventus coach declined the offer to take charge of Lionel Messi’s team, something that would also have happened previously for Zinedine Zidane, so Galtier was the one who increased the value of their actions in the last few hours.
The campus will return to activity with the beginning of the preseason recently announced for July 4. Ángel Di María will no longer be there, and his compatriots Mauro Icardi and Leandro Paredes are in doubt. If these also leave, Messi will be the only Argentine from PSG. Of course, he will continue to be very close to his great friend Neymar.
