Ex-Real Madrid coach Zidane held PSG talks

Former Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane is being lined up by PSG to replace Mauricio Pochettino and to work with Lionel Messi.

That's according to Okdiario's chief pundit Eduardo Inda, who is reporting Pochettino is on shaky ground after his hooking of Messi during victory over Lyon on the weekend.

Inda says Zidane is PSG's No1 choice to replace the Argentine and even made contact with the Frenchman last month.

"Pochettino may come out soon. PSG's plan B would be Zidane, with whom they spoke last August, " he said on El Chiringuito.

"He resists because he wants to coach France, but at PSG they reminded him that the next World Cup in Qatar is within the season and they would let him combine the two jobs."
