Premda je imao još pola godine ugovora i doveo ih je do finala prošlosezonskog izdanja Lige prvaka, PSG je ipak odlučio najuriti trenera Thomasa Tuchela. Ovu vijest donose gotovo svi relevantni francuski mediji, poput L'Equipa, a prenijeli su je i mnogi u Europi.
PSG je trenutno treći u ligi i pomalo je iznenađujuć ovaj otkaz jer stigao je nakon velike 4:0 pobjede nad Strasbourgom. No, prethodno je bilo problema jer PSG je remizirao s Lilleom i poražen je od Lyona, a riječ je o izravnim konkurentima za naslov. Tuchel je imao uspješnu kampanju i u Ligi prvaka, kvalificirao se za nokaut fazu i ždrijeb mu je donio sraz s Barcelonom u osmini finala.

No, PSG je ipak odlučio zahvaliti mu se prije početka nove godine, a već se zna i tko bi ga mogao naslijediti. Naime, glavni favoriti za klupu PSG-a su Mauricio Pochettino i Max Allegri. Prema nekim navodima francuskih medija upravo je Argentinac bliži angažmanu, ali opet neki tvrde da bi povjerenje mogli ukazati Allegriju.
