While Leonardo has denied contacts with Zinedine Zidane, Daniel Riolo makes things clear and ensures that the sports director of PSG lied. Qatar has discussed well with the former number 10 of the Blues according to the journalist.

Since the start of the season, the future of Mauricio Pochettino seems to be dotted in the PSG . And for good reason, between the rumors sending him to Tottenham and Manchester United , as well as the lack of tactical coherence, the club of the capital does not exclude the idea of ​​separating from its trainer, as revealed exclusively by le10sport.com. It must be said that on the side of Doha, the dream has always been to attract Zinedine Zidane , free since his departure from the France team. According to our information, the entourage of the French technician, starting with his historical advisor Alain Migliaccio , is even forcing him to agree to sit on the bench of PSG . According to Le Parisien, a meeting would have even recently taken place in a hotel in the capital between the leaders of PSG and Zinedine Zidane . But in the face of intensifying rumors, Leonardo nevertheless insisted on denying it. “We never contacted (Zinédine) Zidane or any other coach. With (Thomas) Tuchel, before talking to Pochettino, we had not spoken to another. We never contacted Zidane ”, launches the sporting director of PSG at the microphone of Europe 1.

Riolo says it, Leonardo lied for Zidane

Should we believe Leonardo ? Indeed, the sporting director of PSG cannot confirm that the club is discussing with another coach in high season. This was the strategy adopted by the Brazilian leader a year ago … before the dismissal of Thomas Tuchel . Asked about the question at the microphone of the After Foot, Daniel Riolo In any case, he has a strong opinion: “Yes Leonardo has never contacted Zinedine Zidane, but others have done so for him in Qatar. So when he says that PSG have never contacted Zidane, that's a lie. Or they didn't tell him, which is even worse. This is not the first time Leonardo has been lying. He had said the same to Thomas Tuchel two weeks before he was fired. But we know that Leonardo does not decide everything in Paris. “It must be said that the journalist from RMC had recently dropped a small bomb by ensuring that the arrival of Zinedine Zidane on the bench of PSG from this winter was on track . “Clearly Pochettino let it go and the players too … Well, it has no tail or head! I think Pochettino is over! Clearly it is burnt. I announced the arrival of Messi in early December last year. I'm not far from thinking the same for Zidane this winter. I also have some information on the subject, and it discusses very seriously “, confided Riolo who is therefore firmly opposed to the release of Leonardo .
