Despite PSG’s lackluster performance in the Champions League and criticism of Luis Enrique’s tactical inflexibility, Al-Khelaïfi renewed his confidence in the Spanish coach and sports advisor Luis Campos. “We have started a new phase of development for the club. Transformation takes time and requires patience and perseverance. I fully believe in the coach, the players and our team. »

With these declarations, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi wishes to ease tensions and reaffirm the solidity of the Parisian project, while reassuring supporters of the club’s unchanged ambitions: building a competitive and sustainable team, in line with the collective values that it seeks to establish.
