Recently, Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) have been abuzz with news of a possible managerial change, with rumors swirling that they are interested in bringing back former Real Madrid head coach Stann, however, it is widely reported in the European media that the former Galacticos coach has politely declined PSG's gracious offer. The reason behind the rejection is said to be the increased power of the team's new star Kilian McBarbee, who not only receives a hefty salary, but is also part of the management team and has the right to have a say in the sporting director, coaching appointments and transfer decisions. Schiedam fears that he may be overshadowed and face obstacles once he joins PSG.
Kilian McBarbee's contract has been renewed and he has not only earned a lot of money, but he has also been "promoted" to the management. After the departure of sporting director Li Annandou, McBarbie quickly recommended Gambos, a senior executive at his former parent club Monaco, to take over the reins of the team. Staan's decision to turn down the PSG coaching job would have been unacceptably restrictive and would have been difficult for him to accept.
In addition, Schiedam has a higher pursuit in mind - coaching the French national team. He expects to try to take over as national team manager at the end of the year after the World Cup final week, if French leader Digance leaves his post.
