Like Joachim Low, Arsene Wenger has been away from management ever since he bid farewell to Arsenal in the summer of 2018. During the premiere of his film in November last year, the tactician refused to rule out the possibility of returning to the dugout.

As reported recently by PSGTalk, the Parisians are seriously considering the possibility of luring the Frenchman to the Parc des Princes for a management role. Other sources claim he could be made the club's next sporting director.

It remains to be seen how things will pan out between the two parties at the end of the season. With his tactical prowess and reputation, there's no doubt Wenger will bring a lot to the Parisians if he's appointed as a replacement for Mauricio Pochettino.

#2 Erik Ten Hag

Erik Ten Hag has written his name among Europe's elite managers, thanks to his brilliant exploits with Ajax over the last couple of years. The tactician took Europe by storm when his team, made up of mainly young players, defeated Juventus and Real Madrid to reach the Champions League semifinals in 2018-19.

Since taking charge of the club in 2017, the Dutchman has led the team to claim two domestic league titles, two league cups and one league super cup.

Having won everything there's to win in Dutch football, now looks like the right time for the tactician to take a step forward in his career. A couple of big clubs across Europe, including Manchester United and PSG, are said to be interested in his services.

#1 Zinedine Zidane

Former Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane is another tactician who could replace Mauricio Pochettino at PSG. In fact, rumors suggest the Frenchman is the leading candidate to take over from the Argentine in the summer.

Zidane needs no introduction. His recent success with Real Madrid is still fresh in the memory. During his time with the Spanish giants, the 48-year-old was named the world's best club coach on two occasions.

He also led the club to claim multiple honors, including three Champions League crowns, two La Liga titles and two Spanish cups, among others. It remains to be seen if he'll end up getting the nod in the summer.
