Pochettino has been linked to many great teams

In the summer of 2022, Pochettino and management PSG mutually agreed to terminate the contract. Yes, the Parisians became champions of France, but the owners of the Qatari club want to get the coveted Champions League trophy, where PSG things did not go well: the team flew out in the first stage of the playoffs from Real Madrid.

Pochettino recently recalled his time in France:

Creating a single mechanism in such a team was a very difficult task with many unknowns. Each of the players is a person with great talent. When PSG won – they said it was because of the individual skills of the players, when they lost – they said it because of the coach. Everyone is dismissive of the coach’s work.

Since leaving Paris, Pochettino has been featured in all sorts of rumours: he was a leading bridge contender for the England team at the time rumors of Gareth Southgate’s departure after the World Cup began. It was reported that the current England manager has not made his final decision and his contract expires in the summer of 2024. In addition to Mauricio, Brendan Rogers and Thomas Tuchel are among the applicants for this position.

In addition to the England national team, Pochettino had other options to start his career in national teams. If you believe mass media, the Argentinian was considered a potential Belgium manager, but the country’s Royal Football Association decided to opt for Domenico Tedesco. The same option was with the Brazilian national team, but recently the team is increasingly associated with Carlo Ancelotti.

At club level, there are a lot of teams this season that are far from being in their best form. In the summer Mauricio was sent to Chelsea in London, but Boeli chose Graham Potter. Following Jesse Marsh’s sacking from Leeds, the American owners have been trying to get Pochettino because his style of play echoes the type of football the Peacocks have played in recent years.

Plus, there are a couple of other options in England: his former club Tottenham and West Ham. Things are not going well for the Hammers and the retention of their Premier League residence permit is at stake, and the seat under Moyes is already rather shaky. In the case of Tottenham, the picture is slightly different. The contract of the current coach Antonio Conte will expire next summer, and there is still no renewal.

The Argentine was also sent to Real Madrid, Atlético Madrid and Turin’s Juventus, but, apparently, no substantial negotiations have been reached.

Thomas Tuchel’s dismissal came as a surprise to everyone, and now the German is awaiting offers

Before the start of the season, nothing foreshadowed the dismissal of the German specialist from Chelsea. The club acquired a number of players and Tuchel’s opinion was one of the main ones before negotiations began. For example, the new owner of the team heard German about Cristiano Ronaldo. Todd Boeli really wanted to get the Portuguese striker, but Thomas was categorically against it, in connection with which the then Manchester United player stayed in the north-west of England.

Thomas Tuchel, like Pochettino, is considered a potential successor to David Moyes and Antonio Conte, but the German’s ambitions are a little higher and he wants to fight for trophies. Tottenham, and even more so West Ham, in their current state, will not be able to provide at this time the resources which would enable them to become serious contenders for trophies.

German insider Florian Plattenberg reports that Thomas has started learning Spanish. It seems that Tuchel’s priority is to work in La Liga. Moreover, even before his dismissal from Chelsea, there was information that he would offer his services to Barcelona with the idea of ​​​​a dual leadership paired with Xavi. Tuchel is also referred to as one of the main contenders for the Real Madrid coaching position. Florentino Perez wants to continue winning the Champions League, and the German specialist already has experience in the finals of the tournament, as well as triumphs with Chelsea.

Zinedine Zidane’s future remains a mystery

The three-time Champions League winner as Real Madrid head coach has been out of work for the second year. During this period, he was sent to only a few clubs, and was even very close to becoming the boss of the French national team, but Didier Deschamps’ contract was extended and the rumors died down.

The French edition of RMC Sport reports that Zizou is ready to return to coaching, but on one condition. He is ready to lead only four clubs: Real Madrid, PSGBayern or Juventus.

Carlo Ancelotti’s contract with Real Madrid expires in the summer of 2024, but in the last two weeks there have been rumors of an appointment with the Brazilian national team, eager to restore their world champion status. It is not yet entirely clear what the future of the Italian will be in place of “creamy”, which means that the return of Zidane to Madrid cannot be ruled out.

With regard to PSG, so the post of head coach of the club, in principle, is a very shaky position. The leadership of the Parisians has changed quite a lot of specialists and now the question arose of being in the team of Christophe Galtier, since the French have lost three matches in a row and are very close to relegation from the Champions League Bayern Munich. Has been a long time mass media write that the owners PSG they dream of appointing Zinedine Zidane and have been in contact with him more than once in the last year and a half, but Zizou has always preferred to work with the French national team. Now the situation has changed.

Juventus’ position is not entirely clear at the moment. Sanctions have been imposed on the club and the Turinese could lose the opportunity to participate in European competitions. In turn, Zidane is unlikely to agree to a move to a team with a rather precarious position. With the Munich club, everything is easier – the Germans are satisfied with Nagelsmann, otherwise it is certainly not worth ruling out the development of events with the appointment of Zidane to their coaching bridge.

Luis Enrique, Steven Gerrard, André Villas-Boas, Joachim Löw, Gerardo Martino, Rafa Benitez, Lucien Favre, Marcelo Bielsa, Jesse Marsh are a small number of currently jobless professionals. In the event of the current head coach being sacked by one of the top clubs, they will be prime candidates for their position.
