Zapping World Eleven PSG: Galtier’s cash response to Julien Fournier’s criticisms!
Mauricio Pochettino was back in Barcelona this weekend! The Argentine coach was seen this Sunday at the RCDE Stadium, accompanied by Toni Jiminez, a member of the technical staff of the former PSG coach. The two men had come to watch Espanyol Barcelona’s match against Elche, a match that ended with a parity score (2-2). As a reminder, Pochettino trained the Barcelona club between 2009 and 2012, and also wore the colors of the Pericos as a player between 1994 and 2001, then 2004 and 2006, ending his professional football career there. The former Spurs manager has never hidden his affection for Espanyol which he considers his “club” of heart, which has earned him the eternal respect and affection of the supporters of the Catalan team.
Pochettino, soon back on a bench?
But for now, a return of Pochettino at the head of the club does not seem to be on the agenda. Espanyol are currently 13th in La Liga with 10 points from 11 games. An average record for the new Pericos coach, Diego Martinez, who arrived in Barcelona this summer. If the bad results are linked, the name of Pochettino could return with insistence on the side of Espanyol. Especially since the Argentine technician did not hide his desire to quickly find a bench. His name is mentioned at Aston Villa, or at Juventus. Case to follow.
