Paris Saint Germain Approach Zinedine Zidane To Take Over From Mauricio Pochettino

• Zinedine Zidane could become the best-paid coach in the world if he accepts the 25 million euros per season offer from Paris Saint Germain
• PSG are unsure of Mauricio Pochettino’s potential to take the team to Champions League glory after boos from fans at the end of the season
• Zidane has already recorded impressive successes during his short stint as a manager with Real Madrid where he won three Champions League titles

Paris Saint-Germain are ready to make Zinedine Zidane the best-paid coach in the world. PSG hierarchy has deep doubts over the capability of current manager Mauricio Pochettino to steer them to where they want to be.

Pochettino failed to win the league title during his first season in charge. He similarly failed to win the elusive Champions League title that PSG have been hunting for ever since the Qatari investors took over.

After their round of 16 Champions League elimination against Real Madrid, the Argentine manager and his squad were subjected to boos at the Parc Des Princes stadium.

Mundo Deportivo now reports that PSG met with Zidane last week, as quoted by Be Soccer. The French side is ready to offer the legend a salary of 25 million euros per season that will see him eclipse Atletico Madrid's Diego Simeone as the best-paid manager.

Zidane has enjoyed massive success in his less than five years of managerial career. He made history as the first manager to win three consecutive Champions League titles with Madrid.

He was also a combative player during his days. It is an art that he brought into his coaching career. Given the star-studded squad that PSG possesses, intensive man-management will be crucial.

There are reports that Zidane prefers to coach the French national team. He is ready to see whether he will take over the reins after the FIFA World Cup later this year. Didier Deschamps is still in charge and will be hoping to defend his crown in Qatar.
