It has been suggested Mauricio Pochettino is set to be relieved of his duties at the Parc des Princes with Conte believed to have offered himself to the Ligue 1 side.

“You’d never say never in football, anything can happen. PSG obviously, have the finances to try and attract a manager like Conte and I’m sure that will be something that would be in his mind if money is guaranteed there to improve the squad and he gets the say on how things are on a PSG,” said O’Rourke.
