PSG finally reach agreement with Pochettino’s replacement
Paris Saint-Germain has reportedly reached an agreement with Nice to sign Christophe Galtier as their new manager. PSG wants Galtier to replace Mauricio Pochettino at Le Parc des Princes. After being turned down by Zinedine Zidane, who has his eyes set on the French national team job, the French Ligue 1 champions turned their attention to Galtier. According to Le Parisien, PSG has reached an agreement with Nice to sign Galtier for just under 10 million euros. The news comes after PSG and Pochettino agreed to part ways, with the French newspaper reporting the move will cost them 15 million euros in total. While Pochettino’s departure has not been made official, an announcement could come as early as the beginning of next week, but not until they confirm Galtier’s signature. Galtier is no stranger to new PSG football advisor Luis Campos. Both men won the Ligue 1 title in 2020/21 during their time at Lille when they shocked many by beating PSG to the top spot.
