Thomas Tuchel had to leave Paris Saint-Germain at his 47 years old, after a season in which his team arrived to the Champions League final and lost it against Bayern Munich. The German head coach was fired more than two years after his arrival and he founded work at Chelsea FC rapidly.

But Tuchel seems not to forget how PSG kicked him out to hire Mauricio Pochettino, their new coach that arrived quickly after his departure. The German is planning his revenge and that would be trying to steal PSG a very valuated wonder kid, who is set to be one of the best midfielders in the world on the future.

His name is Kays Ruiz-Atil, he is just 18 years old, and he was born in Lyon. The contract of the playmaker with PSG ends on June 2021 and, as the renewal hasn’t been made yet, Tuchel is thinking on convincing him to move to Chelsea. That would mean for the French club to lose one of their greatest prospects.

With a contract of sponsorship signed with Puma, Ruiz-Atil started playing in Olympique Lyon and joined La Masía when a youth, where he learned to play under the FC Barcelona DNA. In 2015, he arrived for free to PSG and since then he played seven games with the first team, all under Tuchel’s mandate. After the arrival of Pochettino he seems to have fewer chances, and that is the reason why he is thinking on making a move soon.
