Fewer sequins, but no more consistency. In recent months, Luis Enrique has constantly repeated his optimism at the idea of making PSG a stronger, more united, more characteristic team, than when the club preferred to collect stars and swell its merchandising recipes. However, his statements have often aroused debates, especially when Paris was on the verge of the champions league in the fall.
Except that in this beginning of 2025, the wind turned, and no one is really indifferent by watching this team play, which is distinguished today by its extraordinary collective force, where each piece of the puzzle contributes to harmony and general expression. This versatility desired for many months by Luis Enrique is bearing fruit, and it is his individuals that emerge from it, like Ousmane Dembélé, his most beautiful ambassador, but also his shadow soldiers like Joao Neves, Désiré Doué, Vitinha and others. Even abroad, Paris is feared, and the meeting against Liverpool on Wednesday, promises us a real shock that the Parisian boss, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi impatiently awaits.
“We have the players to win the Champions League this year”
“Liverpool has been fantastic this season. We were already seen eliminated when we only had 4 points in our first three group games. But our young, talented and new group joined forces and was able to fight with determination. The new Paris Saint-Germain star is the team and I am proud of the way we have transformed the philosophy of our club in such a short time “welcomes the boss of PSG in an interview with Bild And Welt. During this interview, NAK also recognized its wrongs on the old club's policy, which boiled down to stacking the stats.
“I openly recognize that the 5 -year plan was a mistake, but we learn from our mistakes. After all, we managed to reach three C1 semi-finals in the past five years, including a final. If you ask me if our goal is to absolutely win the Champions League (this year), I would say no. If you ask me if we want to fight with every game, I answer you yes. Play offensive football? Yes too. Take pleasure, too. We have the players to do it, we have the players to win the Champions League this year, next year or in eight years. We have the basics to build a large team for the future. »» Also asked about the possibility of facing Real Madrid in the Champions League final, Nak replied that he preferred to face Bayern Munich, which will welcome the home final. Perhaps the hour of revenge, five years after Lisbon tears.
