Support early summer transfer PSG before resigning after his troubles with the FFF and the LFP, Leonardo did not conduct its mission to an end, but he was still heavily involved in the recruitment of a successor to Carlo Ancelotti. In the Sunday newspaper, the former sporting director of Paris Saint -Germain still admits that initially he really wanted to bring Jose Mourinho, but the latter having signed with Chelsea choice of Laurent Blanc was almost a no-brainer.
"I wanted to Jose Mourinho. But it was almost engaged with Chelsea. Then we considered other solutions, but my suspension has complicated things. It was difficult to ask someone to come when I myself was about to leave. We did not call ten thousand coaches. And, contrary to what has been said, Laurent Blanc was not the tenth choice. He was free and was part of the short-list. Lawrence is a mix between French culture and a great international experience. He is very intelligent and uses the best way the players he has. I am very pleased with his work, "says, in the JDD, Leonardo, who obviously still follows closely the performance of the capital club.
