Despite a double course in Spanish/Communication, I decided to take control of my dreams by heading into journalism. With a master's degree in sports journalism, I cover sports and football news with as much admiration for transfer periods, when a club must make crucial choices for next season.
Arriving on the PSG bench in July 2023, Luis Enrique has completely transformed the capital club, whose way of playing, but also of functioning, has been turned upside down. For former Parisian (2008-2011) Claude Makélélé, the team put together by the Spanish coach is the most balanced in the club's recent history.
It has now been a year and a half since Luis Enrique took charge of the PSG. The Spanish coach imposed his style of play within the Parisian club, but also managed to quickly obtain convincing results. In addition to a Champions League semi-final last season, Luis Enrique led Paris towards a 12th championship title Franceand a new victory in the Coupe de France. In January 2024, the Asturian also gleaned his first title at the PSG with the Champions trophy.
Luis Enrique: “This is the best season of my career”
If this Sunday, Luis Enrique could win this trophy again (Paris faces AS Monaco in Doha), the Spaniard had recently hit the headlines by affirming that he was having the best season of his coaching career, despite the poor results of the PSG in the Champions League: “Statistically, this is the best season of my career. There have been criticisms, sometimes even lies, from journalists, not from supporters, but I am satisfied with this season. I heard at the start of the season that we didn't even have the best squad in France. And yet, things are slowly falling into place. With of course our difficulties in the Champions League, but I repeat, I am satisfied with this season. The best of my career. »
“The team is more balanced, more disciplined with a coach of character who has his ideas”
Passing through Doha on the occasion of the “PSG For Communities” foundation, Claude Makélélé spoke about the work carried out by Luis Enrique. “The team is more balanced, more disciplined with a coach of character who has his ideas. I know that in France it's quite difficult, coaches like him are often criticized. I am happy with his ability to unite this team, this club. I wish him success, he deserves it”revealed the former PSG (2008-2011), with the Parisian.
