Al-Khelaïfi wants to continue with Luis Enrique, even in the event of a big failure in the Champions League

Guest of Rothen ignites this Thursday on RMC, during an exceptional program organized at the PSG training center, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi was very clear on the future of Luis Enrique.

Four small points on the clock. And a worrying situation to say the least. Shy striker from Girona (1-0), beaten by Arsenal (2-0) at the Emirates, unable to dominate PSV (1-1) at the Parc, then crucified on the wire by Atlético (1-2) , PSG is today in great danger in the Champions League. Stuck in a very disappointing 25th place (out of 36 teams), the capital club would even be eliminated if the competition stopped now.

The top 8, synonymous with direct qualification for the round of 16, is now far away. The mission of securing the places numbered 9 to 24, and therefore a round-trip barrage of accession to the eighth, seems the most likely even if it will be complicated given the menu that awaits the Parisians: Bayern Munich, Manchester City, Salzburg and Stuttgart. Enough to put some pressure on Luis Enrique’s shoulders?

Al-Khelaïfi wants to extend Luis Enrique and Luis Campos

Absolutely not, according to the statements of Nasser Al-Khelaïfi. Exceptional guest of the Rothen show is on firefrom Poissy and the new PSG training center which was inaugurated this Thursday, the Parisian president was very clear about the future of his technician. Even in the event of elimination in the league phase of the new C1, his position will not be threatened.

“We won't change anything. Whether we go out or win, it's exactly the same thing. I said it, we have a lot of confidence in our coach. He's doing a very good job with Luis Campos. Are they going to extend it? I'm confident yes, that's what we want,” said Nasser Al-Khelaïfi on RMC.

Winning the Champions League this season is not a priority for PSG. “It's not a goal. But I want to say one thing, we play every game to win. But it's not the goal to put this pressure. We have a young team. We have the need to be realistic. We weren't lucky with the draw either, but that's football,” replied Nasser Al-Khelaïfi in Rothen ignites, repeatedly reaffirming his “confidence” in Luis Enrique. .

As explained by RMC Sport, the former FC Barcelona coach, whose contract expires in 2025, will return for two additional seasons. He has this desire to stay in Paris for the long term and also intends to continue his collaboration with Luis Campos, as he has clearly explained publicly.
