Mercato: PSG set sights on Nagelsmann-Henry duo
In their search for a new coach and staff to replace Christophe Galtier, PSG are targeting Julian Nagelsmann, according to a number of corroborating sources, and would like Thierry Henry to become his deputy.
PSG ended their painful 2022-2023 season on Saturday evening with a symbolic defeat at home to Clermont. It was Christophe Galtier's last match as coach of the Parisian club, which he joined a year ago. And to replace him, a name already mooted a few weeks ago came back with insistence on Sunday.
According to information revealed by FootMercato and subsequently confirmed by several other sources, PSG have set their sights on Julian Nagelsmann, who eliminated PSG in the Champions League Round of 8 last March before being sacked by Bayern Munich. A choice made by Doha.

In addition to Nagelsmann, PSG would like Thierry Henry to join their staff as an assistant. According to FM, Nagelsmann and Henry have already spoken, and the second-highest scorer in Les Bleus history, who is very close to Kylian Mbappé, is keen to accept this new challenge.
