Luis Enrique’s huge demand for the Mercato

This winter, Paris Saint-Germain could well be active on the transfer market. A few days ago, Luis Enrique did not close the door to movement this month: “We are always open to improving the team. But I am lucky to coach a team with this quality, this ambition and this level. It’s a pleasure for me. Of course, if we can improve the team, we will try to do so, but it is a difficult task because the top players are not available in the winter. It’s also difficult in the summer, but it’s even more difficult now. We always try to improve the team, but we stay calm because we see the way the team is developing” he said before the Champions Trophy, won on Sunday afternoon with a score of 1 goal to 0 against AS Monaco thanks to a goal in added time from Ousmane Dembélé.

Luis Enrique wants to sell before buying!

Despite everything, and we know it, the Spaniard is not the type to recruit for the sake of recruiting. Besides, he doesn’t plan to have too large a group at his disposal. As Loïc Tanzi reveals, the 54-year-old coach asked his managers to sell before recruiting. Thus, it is not a question of money which explains the Parisian inaction but rather the will of his coach, who does not wish to have too large a squad at his disposal and who prefers to have doubled rather than tripled positions.

Which confirmed his words before the clash against Lens in the Coupe de France, he who claimed to be very happy with the current squad: “I am very happy with the squad. The best thing in each transfer window is to be attentive, it’s difficult to improve our squad, we want to develop our young talents. Regarding the transfer window, we have a very good team. There is no urgency, no need at the moment, but if there is an opportunity to improve the squad, great. But we have a very big team.”
