Paris St-Germain: Laurent Blanc leaves position as manager

Laurent Blanc has left his position as manager of Paris St-Germain after three years at the French league champions.

Blanc, who signed a new two-year deal in February, led PSG to the Ligue 1 title in each of his three seasons in charge, but lost in the Champions League quarter-finals each year.

Sevilla boss Umai Emery has been linked with the vacant post.

Emery, 44, won the Europa League with the La Liga side in each of his three full seasons in charge.

Club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi said earlier this month “big changes will happen”, adding: “I’ve been here for five years and this is the first time we have had this sense of failure.”

PSG, who have won consecutive domestic quadruples, lost to Manchester City in last season’s Champions League quarter-finals.
