The surprising news of the day suggests that Laurent Blanc could potentially succeed Carlo Ancelotti on the PSG bench. Despite Ancelotti’s previous statement indicating his intention to stay, PSG appears to be exploring other options. Convincing José Mourinho, who is expected to join Chelsea, and Arsène Wenger, who expresses a desire to remain at Arsenal, seems challenging for the Parisian club.
One lingering question revolves around whether the 47-year-old former world champion possesses the desired stature for the role. Laurent Blanc, who previously coached the France national team from 2010 to 2012 and Bordeaux from 2007 to 2010, has caught the attention as a potential candidate.
According to Guy Roux, Blanc’s experience, particularly his ability to speak Italian due to his playing days in Naples and Inter, makes him a suitable choice for managing PSG. Roux expresses confidence in Blanc, stating, “It would be a good choice.”
In addition to Laurent Blanc, three other Italian coaches are reportedly being considered by PSG: Roberto Mancini (Manchester City), Luciano Spalletti (Zenith Saint Petersburg), and Fabio Capello (Russia coach). The club seems to be exploring various options to find the right fit for the managerial role
