Luis Enrique’s future at the head of Paris Saint-Germain seems increasingly uncertain, despite a satisfactory first part of the season. While his contract ends next June, revelations indicate that President Nasser Al-Khelaïfi has already contacted Thiago Motta to offer him the position of coach.
Luis Enrique, who arrived in the summer of 2023, remains under contract until the end of the season. Although an extension has been mentioned, no signing has yet been made official. However, Paris dominates Ligue 1 with 10 points ahead of its first pursuer, OM, and remains undefeated in the championship. But in the Champions League, the club is in a fragile position, outside the qualifying places two days before the end of the group stage.
Thiago Motta’s return to PSG?
According to Italian journalist Luca Momblano, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi would have directly contacted Thiago Motta, currently at the head of Juventus, to offer him the reins of PSG. “You are the man we need”the Parisian president is said to have declared. However, Thiago Motta, under contract with Juventus until 2027, would have declined the offer for the moment, preferring to continue his project in Turin.
Despite this refusal, the strong history between PSG and the Italian-Brazilian, who ended his playing career in Paris and began his reconversion as a coach with the club’s U19s, suggests that a return is possible at the ‘future.
