Thomas Tuchel is preparing for life at PSG without Neymar in his side
In France, they claim Tuchel is working with the idea that Neymar won't play for the club again
París Saint-Germain's head coach Thomas Tuchel isn't wasting any time. He wants the Neymar saga resolved as soon as possible and, according to 'Paris United', he's already planning potential systems for next season without the Brazilian.
Despite Tuchel only saying a few days ago that Neymar was "still" his player, it appears the best solution for everyone would be to move him on. Neymar only has eyes for FC Barcelona but PSG want to recoup most of the €222m they spent on him two years ago. The deadline for a deal to be struck is the 10th August when the Ligue 1 season begins.
Neymar has been absent for the entire preseason schedule and Tuchel has tried out various systems, none of which have a place for the Brazilian in them. Here are the three formations he is looking to use next season.
4-4-2
Areola; Bernat, Thiago Silva, Marquinhos, Meunier (o Kehrer); Verratti, Gueye, Herrera, Di Maria; Cavani and Mbappé.
3-4-3
Areola; Marquinhos, Thiago Silva, Kimpembe (o Diallo); Meunier, Verratti, Gueye (o Herrera), Bernat; Di Maria (or Sarabia), Cavani and Mbappé.
4-2-3-1
Areola; Bernat, Thiago Silva, Marquinhos, Meunier (or Kehrer); Verratti, Gueye (or Herrera); Di Maria, Sarabia, Mbappé; Cavani.
