Mauricio Pochettino 'reaches agreement' to leave PSG after Champions League failure

Mauricio Pochettino and Paris Saint-Germain have reached an agreement which will see the manager leave the club just two months after leading them to the Ligue 1 title, according to reports.

Pochettino, 50, is under contract in the French capital until the summer of 2023 having arrived in January 2021 as Thomas Tuchel's replacement. He led PSG to the Coupe de France during his first half-season and followed that up by winning the first league title of his managerial career this campaign.

However, PSG failed to retain the domestic cup and were knocked out of the Champions League under embarrassing circumstances, tossing away a 2-0 aggregate lead in their defeat by Real Madrid. The Parc des Princes club are desperate to be crowned European champions for the first time, so this came as a bitter blow.
