Since his arrival at the club, Luis Enrique has never hidden his ambitions for Paris Saint-Germain. During his press conference held this Saturday in Doha, on the eve of the Champions Trophy against AS Monaco, the Spanish coach reiterated a clear objective: to win all possible trophies.
A PSG aimed towards the summits
“My ambition is the same every season, we want to win everything. It’s very difficult, but it’s a challenge that excites us,” he declared, highlighting a fighting spirit and a desire to make history at the club. This philosophy is part of the context of the first part of the season being judged ” Good “ by the coach. With PSG still in the race on all fronts, Luis Enrique was confident about his team’s ability to progress further.
A Champions League in sight
For Luis Enrique, the Champions League remains the ultimate Holy Grail.
“In this competition, I am calm about our performances. I liked what I saw, and I am confident that we will continue to improve. » However, the Spaniard is lucid about the vagaries of football, recalling that the results do not always reflect the efforts made by the team. Above all, he focuses on a mentality of work and continuous improvement, which he believes is essential to compete with the best European teams.

Luis Enrique counts on the entire squad
Aware of the physical challenges awaiting his team in a second half of the season punctuated by matches every three days, Luis Enrique underlined the importance of the depth of his squad. For him, success depends on the involvement of each player. “It’s not just 11 players who make the difference. Everyone will have a chance, and that’s a philosophy we’ve had in place from the start. » This collective management aims to get the most out of the entire workforce, while limiting the risks of fatigue and injuries.
A transfer window to complete the project
On the transfer market, the coach remains cautious about rumors, but he approves of the club’s strategy, which combines quality recruitment and development of young people. “The idea of PSG has not changed: attract players capable of strengthening the team and give a chance to talents from training”he explained.
Luis Enrique sees this dual approach as a promising long-term project. And if he admits not knowing if the Champions League will arrive under his leadership, he says he is convinced that Paris will end up achieving this objective in the near future.
While waiting to see this project come to fruition, the French champions will have to meet expectations this Sunday against Monaco. A victory in the Champions Trophy would send a clear message: PSG is ready to take on all the challenges that await it this season.
