In addition, Pochettino ends a period of inactivity of more than a year. Since leaving Tottenham in November 2019, he hadn’t managed a team, despite the fact that his name had been linked to many of Europe’s greats. His candidacy has been linked during this time with Real Madrid, Manchester United, Juventus and even with PSG himself, that I already probed in the past summer market.
As a coach, Pochettino started his career directing Espanyol, where he was from 2009 to 2012, he continued in the Southampton, season and a half, and from there I fich for the Tottenham, to which he directed 293 games, with 160 victories, 60 draws and 73 defeats. One team, the Spurs, in which it is became one of the most prestigious coaches and with whom he played a Champions League final in 2019 and another in the League Cup in 2015
Now the Argentine take the relief of Thomas Tuchel at PSG. Although the Gallic club took a few days to make it official, the newspaper picture I advanced the news of the German’s dismissal on December 24. The victory (4-0) that he had achieved the previous day against Racing de Strasbourg was of little use. The irregular start of PSG in the French championship, where it is third, and some disagreements with the directors of the Parisian club They were decisive for the leadership of the French team, Barcelona’s rival in the Champions League, to decide to change course.
The announcement of the signing of Pochettino as PSG coach also means a return to the past of the master, which milit as a player in the Parisian team. There he was between 2001 and 2003. The Argentine soccer career went through Newell’s Old Boys, where debut with slo 16 to, by two stages in Espanyol (which also enter) from 1994 to 2000 and from 2004 to 2006 and for the Girondins of Bordeaux (2003-2004).
