Pochettino faces a crisis in the PSG dressing room before the Real Madrid match

Some say it’s a poisoned candy. Having Keylor Navas and Donnarumma in the squad is not a problem for Pochettino but for a club that wanted to take advantage of the fact that the Italian terminated his contract with Milan last year to join him for free.

Since then, the Argentine coach has had to deal with management between the two, to whom he has distributed minutes throughout the season. On Wednesday at the Bernabeu, there is a problem coming for him because his decision will be a sign before and after the match.

All information indicates that Pochettino will bet on Donnarumma again as in the first leg. And it is something that, if it happens, will upset Keylor, who is not satisfied with knowing he is a substitute or a second option at PSG.

It was already difficult for the Costa Rican to take a beating with Courtois at Real Madrid, with whom he had a strained relationship: “They are not the best of friends. They greet each other and a little more.” “There is a lot of competition between them,” they explained at the time in Madrid.

Keylor felt sidelined at Real Madrid after he put in so much effort to bolster himself at the Bernabéu. The competition with Courtois, surprising and in the eyes of the now traitorous PSG goalkeeper, was the beginning of his farewell to Madrid: “Thibaut found himself in a similar situation at Chelsea, although Petr Cech was a good teammate at the time. We cannot say the same about Navas,” Courtois’ father confirmed some time ago when asked by the press.

Pochettino has always had the upper hand in doing these things. In addition to being a good coach, he also has great skills in finding the necessary balances that allow for a good atmosphere in the dressing room.

However, leaving Keylor Navas on the bench against Real Madrid could be a turning point, although the PSG coach knows he must prioritize the sporting situation over the personal one. The entire season is played at the Bernabéu.
