Paris Saint-Germain’s sporting director Leonardo has said that the French club “do not want Mauricio Pochettino to leave” and has denied reports that he has been in contact with Zinedine Zidane over replacing the Argentine.

Pochettino, 49, has been repeatedly linked with the Manchester United managerial vacancy.

The Athletic revealed on Thursday that the Premier League club are set to appoint Ralf Rangnick as their interim manager until the end of the season, but it is understood Pochettino is on their radar to replace him in the summer.

There have been reports that PSG could move to replace the former Tottenham Hotspur boss with Zidane, but Leonardo has denied this in a statement on Friday.

“We do not want Pochettino to leave,” Leonardo told AFP on Friday. “He never asked to leave and no club contacted us in relation to him.

“We have lots of respect for Zinedine Zidane, for what he did as a player and coach, but I can affirm very clearly that there was no contact or meeting with him.

“It is ridiculous to imagine that a meeting with Zidane could have taken place in a big hotel, in Paris, in front of the world.”
