Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Paris Saint-Germain have opened talks with Zinedine Zidane as a possible replacement for Mauricio Pochettino who is keen on joining Manchester United, according to Le Parisien.<\/p>\n

Manchester United sacked Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on Sunday following a series of bad results with an embarrassing 4-1 loss to Watford which appeared to be the final straw.<\/p>\n

Former midfielder and assistant coach, Michael Carrick was placed in charge on a caretaker basis.<\/p>\n

Pochettino emerged as the preferred choice to takeover at Old Trafford and the Argentine has a deal which runs until 2023.<\/p>\n

Le Parisien reports that PSG\u2019s hierarchy had already reached out to Zidane about possibly succeeding Pochettino in the future but those talks are now accelerating.<\/p>\n

Initially discussions revolved around Zidane taking over next summer, with the French side aware that Pochettino would be keen to leave Paris.<\/p>\n

Talks are progressing well after a meeting earlier this month and PSG are looking to see if they can accelerate the former Real Madrid coach\u2019s arrival in the event that Pochettino moves to Old Trafford.<\/p>\n
