Zidane is the strongest candidate to coach Saint-Germain
The former Italian star, Antonio Cassano, said that the days of Argentine coach, Mauricio Pochettino, may not be long with the French club Paris Saint-Germain, according to the Spanish newspaper, “Marca”.
The Paris giant had suffered a severe defeat at the hands of its host, Stade Rennes, with two goals to nothing, to be the first defeat of the blue team in the French League, despite the participation of its striking force consisting of Argentine star, Lionel Messi, Brazilian, Neymar, and the club's top scorer, Kylian Mbappe. .
According to the newspaper, that loss cast more doubts about Pochettino’s methods and plans, inside the green rectangle,
And whether he will really be able to win the Champions League, which is the big dream of the management and fans of Paris Saint-Germain.
Cassano said, in televised statements, that "Pochettino will have a short life in Paris Saint-Germain," adding: "Some people told me bad things about him, and I also heard some not good rumors about him."
He added, "He is a great guy, but as a coach he doesn't have good tactics even for a minute, but rather asks players for advice on how to plan on the field."
He continued, "I could hardly believe what I heard, but he has not trained big stars before and is facing difficulty in that, and if he continues like this, it is most likely that (French coach) Zinedine Zidane will be the next coach for Paris Saint-Germain."
Previous reports had talked about the French Football Federation's interest in Zidane taking over the responsibility of coaching the "rooster team" after the end of the upcoming World Cup in Qatar.
Other reports also stated that Juventus also had interests in "Zizou" taking the helm of the "old lady", but according to Cassano, "PSG" may be the most likely to obtain the services of the former Real Madrid coach.
Cassano adds: "When Zidane took charge of the Madrid giant, the team was crowded with stars and he managed to deal with them and led them to win the Champions League three times in a row."
And if managing and dealing with stars is what Paris Saint-Germain needs to win the Champions League, then Zidane will surely be the man for the job, according to Cassano.
