The Paris Saint-Germain managerial search continues to take twists and turns, with conflicting reports. Now the latest information coming out of France is that FC Porto manager Sergio Conceiçao is leading the search.

Journalist Nicolas Vilas Boas reported on Saturday that Conceiçao is in Paris but didn’t provide furth information regarding why the Portuguese boss is in the French capital. 

Conceiçao has won the Portuguese league on three occasions since becoming Porto’s manager in 2017. He’s also won the Portuguese cup three times during his stint with the Dragões.

In the last few hours, it was reported and confirmed that Julian Nagelsmann isn’t coming to the French capital. A follow-up report would reveal that three names were in the running; one of them is Luis Enrique.

Furthermore, one report even revealed that the Spanish boss would take over the managerial job. However, other information debunked that rumor, as other names in the mix are Thiago Motta and Xabi Alonso. 

The coaching search may be tiresome as many continue waiting to see who will lead the capital club this 2023-24 season.
