The germany coach take PSG command for the next two seasons
Definitely and irreversibly, Thomas Tuchel is the new coach of Paris Saint-Germain. The administration of France’s top club in recent years, announced on Monday, May 14 that the German technician is taking over its «steering wheel» for the next two years. Something that means Spanish co-operation, Unai Emery, ends at the end of the current season.
«With great pleasure, pride and ambition fits into this great club in world football is the PSG,» said Tuchel after signing his contract and added: «I look forward to working with all these great players, who are among the best on the planet.
