Laurent Blanc has wished his successor good luck after his departure from Paris Saint-Germain was announced on Monday.
Former France coach Blanc spent three years at the PSG helm, guiding the club to a trio of Ligue 1 titles and completing a second successive domestic treble last season.
However, failure to progress beyond the quarter-finals of the Champions League during his tenure led to president Nasser Al-Khelaifi branding 2015-16 "a failure".
Blanc has subsequently left his position at the Parc des Princes and was gracious in his parting words.

"I spent three seasons here that were fulfilling on a human and professional level, littered with numerous trophies.
"I wish the best for PSG and its supporters as well as good luck for my successor."
