Fans are in hysteria as Zinedine Zidane is reportedly close to managing Lionel Messi at Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).PSG have long desired the former Real Madrid manager to take over at the Parc des Princes. However, they have never been able to lure the Frenchman to the French capital.Zidane now appears to have been convinced to make the move though. Journalist Daniel Riolo (per Onze Mondial) reports that he will take over from Mauricio Pochettino at the Parisian club.The legendary Madrid player enjoyed a hugely successful tenure in charge of the La Liga giants over two spells. He won an astounding three consecutive UEFA Champions League trophies and two La Liga trophies.Here are some reactions from fans who are are excited to see Zidane potentially managing the likes of Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar at PSG:Lionel Messi 🔟@la__pulga30Just imagine Zidane answering to the press and say Lionel Messi is the best player he have ever coached in his life.Pendu fans wouldn't die listening that 🤣🤣🤣Just imagine Zidane answering to the press and say Lionel Messi is the best player he have ever coached in his life.Pendu fans wouldn't die listening that 🤣🤣🤣Adi@blancoaditya@AtharvFCB_o7 When Zidane asks Messi to produce clutch moments in the CL1@AtharvFCB_o7 When Zidane asks Messi to produce clutch moments in the CL https://t.co/ALMvNwEXvzCR7STIANISMO 🇪🇸@Cr7stianismo_@FabrizioRomano Please, Fabrizio, say that Zidane will never train PSG1@FabrizioRomano Please, Fabrizio, say that Zidane will never train PSGBhavesh 🇮🇳 ࿗@chaijeeevi@siddhantxingh Messi - Neymar - Mbappe - Zidane deadly @siddhantxingh Messi - Neymar - Mbappe - Zidane deadly 🔥Son of Bala✨🦅@hamsik_bh1@goal Now messi will have a decent manager in a long time9@goal Now messi will have a decent manager in a long timeOzi@oziculeZidane is the best manager PSG can get.

The duo shined under the Frenchman, scoring an incredible joint 220 goals in 337 appearances during that period.Messi has encountered a somewhat indifferent debut season in Paris, making 34 appearances, scoring 11 goals and contributing 15 assists.However, he could be the player that mostly benefits from the change in manager. The Frenchman's experience in handling such a legendary forward could come well into effect.Pochettino, meanwhile, leaves in bittersweet circumstances given he managed to guide PSG to the Ligue 1 title.His collapse in the Champions League R16 against Real Madrid in the 2021-22 season had always been a burden that the Argentine could never shake off.Nevertheless, it seems Paris Saint-Germain will be heading into a new era with 'Zizou' running the show.
