3 possible destinations for Pep Guardiola in the summer

2. Paris Saint-Germain

Kylian Mbappe

Just like Italy, Guardiola is yet to bring his brand of football to France and there’s no better time than now for that to happen. Paris Saint-Germain are craving for Champions League glory too, already have some of the best players in the world in their armoury and maybe, just maybe, Guardiola’s arrival could convince Kylian Mbappe to stay!

Thomas Tuchel’s position at the hot seat in Paris is under threat, and the recent spat with Mbappe has put his future on doubt. The former Borussia Dortmund manager has above 76% win percentage with the Ligue 1 giants and has enjoyed huge domestic success since taking over PSG. Last season, PSG were cruelly knocked out of the UEFA Champions League by Manchester United, and this time, they are already trailing to Borussia Dortmund in the first leg of the round of 16. While it would be too immature to rule them out of the competition before the second leg, if the PSG hierarchy are looking for alternatives to Tuchel, Guardiola’s availability would have them rubbing their hands in glee.

The Spaniard would also relish the new challenge and PSG’s financial muscle power would represent a viable opportunity to get his hands back on the coveted Champions League trophy that has eluded him for so long.
