Mauricio Pochettino odds-on favourite for PSG job

He could replace Thomas Tuchel at the Ligue 1 champions

Mauricio Pochettino is the clear favourite to replace Thomas Tuchel as the new Paris Saint-Germain manager.

The former Tottenham Hotspur boss is 1/5 to get the job, with Massimiliano Allegri back at 7/1 as second-favourite.

PSG are currently third in Ligue 1, a point behind leaders Lyon. They’ve also been drawn against Barcelona in the last 16 of the Champions League.

Pochettino spent three seasons at PSG during his playing career, making 95 appearances for the club in all competitions.

“Mauricio Pochettino has been out of work for over 12 months now but our betting suggests he could be set to return to the manager’s dugout at PSG, as he is long odds-on to replace Thomas Tuchel at the French club,” said Coral’s John Hill.
