Laurent Blanc's time as Paris Saint-Germain manager could be coming to end.

The French champions have shown an interest in Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone, who has yet to decide whether he will return to the La Liga side, a source revealed to Miguel Delaney of ESPNFC.

The decision to possibly bring in a new face comes after yet another season where Blanc failed to make progress in the Champions League, after Manchester City knocked PSG out of the competition in the quarter-finals.

A source suggests the eccentric Simeone may not want to part ways with Atletico so soon after guiding the club to the Champions League final for the second time in three seasons.

However, the team's loss to Real Madrid deeply impacted the Argentine and has led him to reflect on his next move.
