Paris Saint-Germain manager, Mauricio Pochettino is facing an impending sack at the club following his side’s removal from the Champions League on Wednesday.

Le Parisien reports that both Pochettino and PSG’s Sporting Director, Leonardo would both pay the price for the defeat.

Pochettino watched as Real Madrid eliminated PSG from the Champions League round of 16 second-leg tie after losing 3-1.

Karim Benzema scored 3 objectives to send out Real Madrid into the quarter-final as Kylian Mbappe’s only goal was inadequate for PSG.

Genuine Madrid had actually lost 1-0 against PSG in the first leg and qualified on a 3-2 aggregate win.

Speaking at his post-match interview, Pochettino stated: “The present is all I can deal with.

“As for the future, what will be will be. We play to complete and to win. It’s a tough blow to take, however we have to keep a calm head now.”
