Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain have parted company with Laurent Blanc, with Sevilla coach Unai Emery poised to take over.

Following widespread speculation linking Emery with the PSG job, it was announced he would depart Sevilla almost two weeks ago. Jorge Sampaoli is set to be the three-time Europa League winner's successor in Andalusia.

Blanc guided PSG to back-to-back domestic trebles in the last two seasons, but quarter-final exits in the Champions League in each of his three seasons in charge are likely to have cost him dearly.
