Disappointed with the departures at the end of the contract of Tanguy Kouassi, Thomas Meunier and Edinson Cavani, Paris Saint-Germain coach Thomas Tuchel made no secret of his dissatisfaction. A reaction deemed excessive.
It is with a weakened workforce that Paris Saint-Germain will have to compete in the finals of the national cups, against AS Saint-Etienne and Olympique Lyonnais, then the “Final 8” of the Champions League in Lisbon. At the end of the contract, Tanguy Kouassi, Thomas Meunier and the striker Edinson Cavani have indeed decided not to end the season with the Parisians. A big disappointment for coach Thomas Tuchel, who appeared affected by these departures at a press conference. Not enough to soften Raymond Domenech, convinced that these outings do not really represent hard knocks for PSG.
« The period is complicated, difficult, they do not know where they are going to go. They still lose a few players, recognized the former coach of the Blues on La Chaîne L’Equipe. But they lose Cavani, who was not an indisputable holder. Meunier, with Tuchel it did not really pass so he will lose a player he had already lost by half. (…) It is normal for him to alert but I am not as worried as he is because when we see the squad and the team he has left, he can play five high-level games. Finally, assuming that the French champion is spared from injuries after all these months of stoppage.
