Real Madrid performed a memorable remontada on Wednesday evening as Carlo Ancelotti’s side came from behind to knock PSG out of the Champions League.
The reaction in both Spain and France has obviously been huge, and in the media closest to the Ligue 1 club, questions are obviously being asked about Mauricio Pochettino’s future.
Things haven’t been perfect for some time for the manager at PSG, and when Ole Gunnar Solskjaer left Manchester United, there was huge hype around Pochettino making a quick move to Old Trafford, despite being midway through the season.
Not thought to be happy with everything at the French club, the move to Manchester United appeared tempting, and when Ralf Rangnick was appointed as interim manager it was assumed by many that Pochettino would be taking over in the summer.
Thursday’s edition of L’Equipe reports the loss to Real Madrid ‘seems to seal the fate’ of the Argentine. It is ‘more and more likely’ that the manager has overseen his last European match for PSG, and will leave at the end of the season.
The French newspaper believe it will come as ‘a relief’ to Pochettino, and a return to the Premier League is pushed. A switch at the end of the current campaign is increasingly likely, and Manchester United have been the most linked club.
