He has been at the club for 18 months.

Paris Saint Germain have confirmed manager Mauricio Pochettino has left the club after 18 months.

Pochettino has left Paris St Germain as the Ligue 1 club prepares to announce former Nice boss Christophe Galtier as his replacement.

Pochettino had a year remaining on his current contract but speculation over his future had intensified following his failure to get the club beyond the last 16 of the Champions League, having made the semi-finals the previous year.

The former Spurs boss won the French title last season, but PSG were knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid and have still to win the competition.

"Paris St Germain confirms that it has ended its collaboration with Mauricio Pochettino," it said in a statement.

"The club would like to thank Mauricio Pochettino and his staff for their work and wish them the best for the future."
