PSG confirmed on Thursday that Precheur has stepped down, citing "personal reasons" in their statement.
The remainder of his background staff will remain in charge and his son Jocelyn, who worked as his assistant last term, has taken over as head coach.
WHAT THEY SAID
The veteran manager's exit comes after he criticised the club at the end of last season, sparking reports of a likely departure.
"PSG must provide guarantees to build a great club. Being competitive is not enough. I want to finish my career with a desire to win," he said.

PSG won their first league game of the season before his exit and they will hope to make it two wins from two when they meet Lyon this weekend.
