Ligue 1: Zidane snubs PSG again

Zinedine Zidane has once again turned down the chance to take over as Paris Saint-Germain’s manager.

The Ligue 1 champions are looking to replace Christophe Galtier at the helm.

Galtier has failed to live up to expectations and reports suggest that the club’s advisor Luis Ocampos has already relayed it to the 56-year-old that he has been shown the exit door.

A report on Le Parisien has suggested that Zidane was PSG’s first choice, similar to last year after the sacking of Mauricio Pochettino.

However, the former Real Madrid manager refused to accept the offer last year and fortunes haven’t changed for the club once again. Zidane – who hasn’t managed a club since his stint at Madrid which ended in 2021 – is not looking to take up the job at PSG as he reportedly holds out for the France national team job.
