Amidst ongoing speculation about Carlo Ancelotti’s departure to Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has yet to finalize the decision on Ancelotti’s potential replacement. Rumors suggest that Roberto Mancini, recently sacked from Manchester City, is a strong contender to succeed Ancelotti at PSG.
Jacques Villeneuve, who is closely connected to Qatar and a former president of PSG, suggests that Leonardo, the current sporting director of PSG, might pose a challenge in sealing the deal for Roberto Mancini. Villeneuve shared his views on Canal +, highlighting negotiations behind the scenes. He mentions ongoing talks with a coach recently dismissed from Manchester City (Mancini) and the conditions being set, including the potential departure of Leonardo. Villeneuve emphasizes that Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, the president of PSG, is actively engaged in negotiations, not only for coaches like Mancini but also for players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Edinson Cavani, and Wayne Rooney.
The situation is characterized by strategic silence, according to Villeneuve, and negotiations are expected to continue behind the scenes until a resolution is reached
