"The Club would like to thank Mauricio Pochettino and his staff for their work and wish them the best for the future,” part of the statement read.
Pochettino and his coaching staff are expected to be paid Ksh1.8 billion (€15 million) as a compensation fee.
Despite winning PSG the league title, the former Tottenham Hotspurs manager, fell short of the club's expectations in the Uefa Champions League where he was knocked out by Real Madrid in the Quarter Finals.
Pochettino is expected to be replaced by former Nice Manager Christophe Galtier.
