Posted on December 2, 2021 at 6.30 p.m. by T.M. Back at PSG in 2019, Leonardo may well not be long as a sporting director. More and more rumors are indeed echoing a possible future departure from the Brazilian… If the results are rather good for PSG since the start of the season, we do not really breathe serenity within the club of the capital. Internally, we would clearly not be on the same wavelength, especially between Mauricio Pochettino and Leonardo . Between the two men, it would be rather tense. But that might not last very long since this duo should no longer exist anytime soon. And if it is above all a question of a future departure of the Argentine, announced as the future coach of Manchester United , the sporting director of PSG would not be certain. 100% to stay in office. More and more there is talk of a departure of Leonardo , who could also pack his bags in the coming months. And if Leonardo is announced at the start, it is mainly because of a certain Zinedine Zidane . Today free from any contract, the Frenchman is seen as the number 1 option for the Qataris to come and occupy the bench for PSG in place of Mauricio Pochettino . An arrival of Zizou which could well cost the post of Leonardo . Indeed, lately, Footmercato assured that Zidane did not want to work with the Brazilian in the event of arrival in Paris in order to have a free hand. A trend then confirmed by Frédéric Hermel , who explained on RMC: “I don't think Zidane could work with him. We know very well that Leonardo has a lot of power at PSG, and that the great coaches like to have direct contact with the players and the leaders, without intermediary. (…) You also remember what Leonardo said about Zidane, when Zidane mentioned Kylian Mbappé at a press conference at Real Madrid. Leonardo's statements in reaction had been hostile to Zidane. These words do not encourage collaboration “. Leonardo could therefore be asked to leave PSG , where we are already working to find a replacement. And he could well be a former leader of FC Barcelona . Indeed, while Ramon Planes has barely left his duties as technical secretary for the Blaugrana, he could quickly return to the forefront. According to information from Cadena Ser, Planes would negotiate in particular with PSG , while Newcastle and Valence would also be options for the rest of his leadership career. 
The shadow of Zidane!
