Indeed, according to Fred Hermel, the arrival of Zinédine Zidane at PSG could cause the departure of Leonardo , sports director of the Parisian club. “I don't think he could work with him. We know very well that Leonardo has a lot of power at PSG, and that great coaches like to have direct contact with players and managers, without intermediaries.
