According to Telefoot, Zinedine Zidane is so close to agreeing on a deal with the Saints

Seismic changes and restructuration at Parc des Princes have reached the point from which there's no way back.

After managing to keep their mesmerizing star Kylian Mbappe for some years - which cost Nasser Al-Khelaifi and his entourage much more than billions of euros - PSG are ready for the next step.

Bringing in a new coach, and, according to Telefoot, it's none other than legendary Zinedine Zidane.

Three-time Champions League winner with Real Madrid has been the subject of numerous rumours in recent weeks. However, it seems that the story of him in the Paris dugout has gone from being a utopia to almost a reality.

As per Telefoot journalist Saber Desfarges both parties have come considerably closer to reaching an agreement in recent hours.

Zidane's possible arrival is not a wish of Luis Campos, PSG's new sports adviser, who preferred Nice coach Christophe Galtier. Anyhow, the insistence of the Emir of Qatar and Nasser Al-Khelaifi with Zizou has meant that ZZ is now a real option to succeed Mauricio Pochettino.

Still, PSG first have to settle Pochettino's departure, who could earn as much as 20,000,000 euros as he still has one year left on his contract. The negotiations with Zidane are progressing well, and the outcome could come very soon, as Saber Desfarges underlines.
