Paris Saint-Germain director Leonardo has backed Mauricio Pochettino to remain in charge until the end of the season despite increasing pressure on the Argentine.
Pochettino is facing fresh questions over his future at the French club after his side crashed out of the Champions League in spectacular fashion. Having held a 2-0 lead over Real Madrid on aggregate with 30 minutes of the tie to go, a Karim Benzema hat-trick dumped PSG out at the Santiago Bernabeu.
The visitors had looked set to book their place in the quarter-finals after Kylian Mbappe’s goal doubled their advantage in the tie. Just after the hour mark, though, Benzema struck his first goal to give Real some hope.
