About to extend his contract at Paris Saint-Germain, Luis Enrique benefits from the full confidence of his managers. However, the capital club has not always been so lenient towards its coaches.
The choice of Paris Saint-Germain is not unanimous. In the days or weeks to come, the reigning French champion will announce the extension of Luis Enrique. The Parisian coach, under contract until next June, should re-engage for two more years. Proof that the Spaniard benefits from the full confidence of his leaders at a time when his team is raising some doubts. Questions that the success against Strasbourg (4-2) on Saturday did not dissipate in the mind of Bertrand Latour.
« The extension of Luis Enrique? I find it very surprisingreacted the journalist from Canal Football Club. Especially since PSG has often squeezed coaches, sometimes unfairly, and benefits from a free hand inversely proportional to the quality of its results. All the national trophies won? It’s called the minimum wage for PSG. May PSG be above the others with triple the budget, thank you to them… » As for the semi-final of the Champions League reached last season, Bertrand Latour sees a downside.
PSG stagnates
« PSG was eliminated by Borussia Dortmund which for me is a team supposed to be much worse than PSG given the sums committed year after yearhe recalled. We were talking about progress in the game, but I don’t measure it well enough. I see a dominant team in Ligue 1, because it has players above it in Ligue 1. And when the level rises, perhaps it is accountable for the value of its squad, but it participated in the recruitment, I see a team that is not progressing. So for me there was no urgency to extend Luis Enrique. » This signing could nevertheless reassure the Parisians currently in discussions for an extension (Achraf Hakimi, Vitinha and Nuno Mendes).
