As the French sports newspaper “L’Equipe”, the portal “Foot Mercato” and the Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano unanimously report, the former coach of FC Bayern Munich is negotiating with France’s top club Paris Saint-Germain.

According to the reports, talks between PSG and Nagelsmann are said to be well advanced. But: An agreement should not have been reached yet. Talks are expected to continue next week. Then things could go quickly and a decision could be made, according to the reports.

But: According to BZ information, Bayern, where Nagelsmann is still under contract, is not aware of the negotiations. However, those responsible would be happy to be able to remove him from the payroll.
Nagelsmann was released at Bayern at the end of March when all the titles were still there, and took over for him Thomas Tuchel. Bayern then dropped out of the cup and the Champions League, but still secured the eleventh German championship in a row in a heartbeat final on the last day of the Bundesliga. The only title this season.
Nagelsmann to PSG of all places?
Bayern, then still with Nagelsmann, had the Parisians in the round of 16 Champions League kicked out of the competition. Again you failed early in the premier class. The handle pot is in great demand at the Sheikh Club. Every year, countless millions are pumped into the squad, which is peppered with superstars, for this dream – so far without success.

Will Henry Nagelsmann become his assistant coach?
There is also speculation in France about a possible assistant coach. According to “Foot Mercato”, it should be none other than the former world star and France idol Thierry Henry.
Henry had recently gained sufficient experience as an assistant coach. Until the end of 2022, the former world-class striker was an assistant with the Belgian national team and was also on the coaching bench at the World Cup in Qatar. After taking over Domenico Tedesco’s team, Henry left his post.
Is Henry now hiring with Nagelsmann at PSG? Most recently, the Paris Ultras vehemently demanded that the ex-striker be engaged. Will these be fulfilled soon?
