Galtier, the one chosen by Al-Khelaïfi to replace Pochettino at PSG

Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, president of PSG, assured in an interview with Le Parisien that the one chosen as the new coach of the Parisian team is Cristophe Galtier, coach of Nice, with whom he hopes to find an agreement "quickly". In addition, he has confirmed that Zinedine Zidane will not train PSG, in fact he assures that they have never contacted him.

"We have chosen a coach who will be the best for what we want to put in place," the Qatari leader said, confirming talks with current Nice coach Christophe Galtier. "I hope we find an agreement quickly, but I respect Nice and President (Jean-Pierre) Rivère, each defends his interests," he added.

Regarding the former Real Madrid coach, Al-Khelaïfi wanted to make it clear that "we have never spoken with him, directly or indirectly. Many clubs are interested in him, also several national teams, but we have never spoken with him," he settled.

With these words, the Qatari leader confirms the rumors about the interest in Galtier, whom Luis Campos, the team's new sporting director, already signed for Lille. Pochettino's goodbye and the arrival of the new coach should be announced in the next few days.
