Paris Saint-Germain had a real nightmare on Wednesday night. After winning the first game of the 1/8 final with Real Madrid (1-0) in great style, it was time for a rematch at Santiago Bernabeu. This time it also started great, because in the first half the Parisians took the lead thanks to a goal from Kylian Mbappe.
The nightmare began in the second half, however. After Gianluigi’s fatal mistake, Donnarumma equalized Karim Benzema and Carlo Ancelotti’s team got wind in their sails. The French added two more hits and the game ended with the score 3: 1. So the players were happy to advance to the quarter-finals.
Leonardo says goodbye to PSG. The search for a new sports director is underway
After this defeat, the PSG authorities completely lost their patience and made the decision to revolutionize the club. President Nasser Al-Khelaifi cannot come to terms with another missed chance for a Champions League victory and intends to fire the sports director in the first place. The 52-year-old is supposed to get along poorly with young players and their partners, but most of all he misses the choices of coaches. According to information obtained by the well-known French journalist Romain Molina, Parisians have already started looking for a new candidate for this position.
French media believe Leonardo’s release is just the beginning. The club is undergoing a major overhaul during the summer transfer window. The Qatari have already come to terms with their loss, but according to Molina, Neymar may also say goodbye to Paris. In addition, the departure of Mauricio Pochettino is a foregone conclusion.
