Zinedine Zidane’s name has reappeared as a possible replacement for Mauricio Pochettino on the Paris Saint-Germain bench despite the club not communicating their decision to part ways with the Argentine.

French President Emmanuel Macron has also publicly expressed his desire to see Zidane work with a French club, as he had previously done with Kylian Mbappe, whom he advised to renew his contract with PSG.

The Ligue 1 club has decided to target the appointment of Zidane, with the French coach having revealed in the past that he wants to be the coach of Les Blues.

Zidane’s possible arrival at PSG has nothing to do with Mbappe’s renewal.

The financial offer and the opportunity to take on a project that offers him control are the factors that could lure the three-time Champions League winner to PSG.

The owners from Qatar are believed to favor Zidane. His past from Marseille and Real Madrid has reportedly prevented him from joining PSG.

However, his relationship with Los Blancos is now tense.

Following Zidane’s departure last summer, some departure has been noted regarding his relationship with Los Blancos.

The Frenchman has celebrated on his social media accounts after Real Madrid’s victory in the Champions League final, but until then.

In fact, during the season there was no contact or response from Zidane to the messages received, including some from Carlo Ancelotti.

Real Madrid fans could feel hurt if Zidane joins PSG, but the French coach is a professional who sees the Parisian club as a good option.

Years ago, Zidane became ambassador for the bid for the 2022 Qatar World Cup. At the moment he has no further ties to Qatar beyond the occasional commercial appearance, as Adidas remains his main sponsor.
