Stunning PSG XI for next season with Mourinho as manager.
With reports that Paris Saint-Germain are interested in an ambitious move to hire Chelsea‘s Jose Mourinho as their next manager, here’s a potential XI the Portuguese boss could have at the Parc des Princes next season, if recent transfer rumours are anything to go by…
GK: Hugo Lloris
Long linked with a return to France with PSG, Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris would be a fine signing in goal to boost the club’s defence.
DR: Seamus Coleman
A surprise target towards the end of the summer, it is reported that PSG will try again to sign highly-rated Everton right-back Seamus Coleman in January.
DL: Layvin Kurzawa
Brought in from Monaco this year, Layvin Kurzawa is an outstanding prospect in French football and could be first choice for PSG for years to come.

DC: David Luiz
Sold by Mourinho at Chelsea, David Luiz has been better since moving to PSG and could remain a regular starter under the Portuguese coach if he moved to the Parc des Princes.
DC: Thiago Silva
One of the best defenders in the world, Thiago Silva would no doubt shine under Mourinho’s tactical and defensive discipline.
MC: Blaise Matuidi
A key part of this PSG team, Blaise Matuidi’s place in the team would surely still be safe after looking like one of the best midfielders in Europe in recent times.
MC: Marco Verratti
A classy playmaker in the Andrea Pirlo mould, Marco Verratti is a big player for PSG and could truly become one of the best in the world under Mourinho’s guidance.
MC: Paul Pogba
A player Mourinho has tried to sign for Chelsea, there is every chance that PSG will win the race for Paul Pogba’s signature, and he’d be a world class addition to their midfield.
FR: Cristiano Ronaldo
An ambitious target from Real Madrid, it looks increasingly likely that Cristiano Ronaldo could leave the Bernabeu for a big-money move to PSG either in January or next summer – in fairness, few other clubs in the world could afford him.
FL: Angel Di Maria
Signed from Manchester United this summer, Angel Di Maria should prove a good buy for PSG and will surely shine alongside old team-mate Ronaldo.
FC: Edinson Cavani
One of the best strikers in the world, Edinson Cavani will soon become the main man up front for PSG as Zlatan Ibrahimovic looks like leaving soon – that’s if Arsenal don’t snap up the Uruguayan.
