'The situation is clear' - PSG never considered sacking Tuchel following transfer business criticism, says Leonardo

Champions League results and the coach's comments have increased the pressure at Parc des Princes, but the German has the support of the board

Leonardo says Paris Saint-Germain have not considered sacking Thomas Tuchel, even if the club were unhappy with criticism of their transfer business.

Tuchel guided PSG to the Champions League final for the first time last season, also winning a domestic treble, although they were beaten by Bayern Munich in the European showpiece.

But pressure has built on the German coach in the new campaign, which started quickly after the disappointing end to the previous term.
