Julian Nagelsmann is in advanced talks to become PSG’s new head coach, and Thierry Henry could be appointed as his assistant.
Despite Christophe Galtier’s assurance that he would prefer to stay put, PSG is formalising its preparations to replace him as head coach and has already started early talks to employ Nagelsmann.
A report by Foot Mercato says he is the leading candidate and Thierry Henry could join as his assistant manager.
PSG have been left disappointed by Galtier’s reign, as the club failed to progress beyond the last-16 in the Champions League, and were beaten by Nagelsmann’s Bayern.
The club are now said to be discussing Nagelsmann’s possible appointment, and L’Equipe reports that the negotiations are moving quickly.
PSG are also said to be considering appointing Henry as the German coach’s assistant should he move to the club.
