The changes have already started ringing in at PSG with Luis Campos replacing Leonardo as director.

Pochettino did manage to lead PSG to the Ligue 1 title after they failed to win it last year. But the biggest disappointment for him and PSG last year was that they failed to win the Champions League, despite having had a favourable position in the first leg. PSG have long wished to win the Champions League and had assembled some really big names to help them get that European crown. But Champions League still remains a distant dream for the Parisians as they hope to bring about a change in their European fortunes with Zidane's appointment.
