PSG deny Arsene Wenger rumours

Arsene Wenger will not become Paris Saint-Germain’s new sporting director, according to the club’s president Nasser Al-Khelaifi.

Wenger has been without a job since stepping down as Arsenal boss at the end of last season after 22 years in charge of the Premier League side.

The 68-year-old has stated that he has no plans to retire and his been linked with a number of roles.

Henrique has often had a difficult relationship with head coach Thomas Tuchel, with the German openly critical of the club’s transfer activity during the January window.

However, Al-Khelaifi insists reports of an imminent move for the Frenchman are wide of the mark.

“I have very good relations with Arsene,” he told Le Parisien.

“I’m close to him and I’ve known him for a long time. He is a wonderful manager and coach. He has a very sharp and very complete knowledge of football.
