The past week has been very complicated for Paris Saint-Germain. Opposed last Tuesday to Bayer Munich during the fourth day of the Champions League, the Parisian club lost more than the match (1-2). Several injured people have joined the infirmary, like Ousmane Dembélé, Achraf Hakimi and Nuno Mendes. From Luis Enrique’s point of view, there is no reason to move heaven and earth in view of the winter transfer window.
The Spanish coach was in front of the press this Saturday, on the eve of Sunday’s match against Olympique Lyonnais (8:45 p.m., 12th day of Ligue 1). If he first explained that PSG was “open all the time” opportunities during the transfer window, he above all indicated that he remained satisfied with his current squad and that he had enough resources in store not to necessarily look elsewhere.
“There is no urgency, no concern. When we plan things, we not only think about the positive things, but also the negative ones. » In other words, Luis Enrique and the sporting director, Luis Campos, did what was necessary in advance to deal with each other’s injuries.
“At the moment there is no problem. These are injuries, sure, but they happen to every team. We are calm and peaceful. »
Playing time for substitutes
And to repeat all the same that PSG was
” open “ and attentive to what could happen during the next transfer window. In recent days, Luis Enrique’s interest in Barça defender Eric Garcia has been mentioned. It therefore does not seem completely crazy to think that a defensive reinforcement could arrive this winter in Paris.
The PSG tactician in any case added that the absence of the usual executives “would offer minutes of play” to those generally present on the bench. And this should be the case from Sunday evening at Groupama Stadium.
