PSG's next coach may be Portuguese but it won't be me says Monaco boss Jardim

Fabinho has not been in contact with Paris Saint-Germain over a prospective transfer from Monaco.

Paris Saint-Germain's Spanish headcoach Unai Emery holds the trophy as he celebrates after victory in the French League Cup final football match between Monaco (ASM) and Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) at The Matmut Atlantique Stadium in Bordeaux, southwestern France on March 31, 2018.

Cavani converted it to put PSG ahead on eight minutes, underlining Ligue 1 leaders PSG's superiority over the likely runners-up.

Monaco were thrashed 4-1 in last year's final by PSG, although the principality club avenged that defeat as they pipped their rivals to the Ligue 1 crown to end a 17-year wait.

Leonardo Jardim beefed up Monaco's frontline for the second half, replacing Tielemans with Stevan Jovetic.

Cavani tucked away from the spot after referee Clement Turpin used the VAR technology to award PSG an early penalty, with Kamil Glik guilty of bringing down Kylian Mbappe. He fed Di Maria an astute cross that tore up his opponents' defense, and the Argentine winger didn't waste the chance of doubling up the lead in the 21st minute.

This season Jardim has overseen an impressive rebuilding project at Monaco, guiding the club on a 15-match unbeaten run in the league despite an injury to top striker Radamel Falcao.

Mbappe was a constant threat to the Monaco back four, setting up Cavani for another offside "goal".

Mbappe, who joined PSG from Monaco in a 180-million-euro deal a year ago, continued to look risky but proved wasteful in front of goal as he prodded past the post just two minutes after Subasic had saved at his feet.

The striker has now scored eight goals in French League Cup finals, after previous doubles in 2014, 2015 and past year.
