In February , he signed a new 2 year contract with the club, but came under pressure for failure to impress in the Champions League.
The club’s president Nasser Al- Khelaifi had hinted at changes earlier this month.

Former Sevilla boss Unai Emery, is highly likely to replace the Frenchman at the club.
