"We do not want Mauricio Pochettino to go," he told AFP. "He has never asked to leave and nobody has contacted us for him."

Leonardo also dismissed a report first published in Le Parisien on Thursday that PSG had held a secret hotel meeting with Zinedine Zidane to sound him out as a potential replacement when Pochettino leaves.

"We respect Zinedine Zidane a lot, both as a player and coach, but I tell you very clearly that there has been no contact. No meeting," Leonardo said.
