Luis Enrique was keen to salute the season achieved by Pierre Sage and RC Lens, on the eve of a Ligue 1 clash between Paris Saint-Germain and its runner-up. The PSG technician recognized the quality of the work carried out in the North, believing that the Lensoise team was one of the great revelations of the season and congratulated him for his coronation as best coach of the year at the UNFP Trophies, a ceremony that the Asturian preferred to decline.
“We highlighted what Lens did this season. Nobody at the start of the season imagined that. It’s the first time since I’ve been here that there’s a team that’s giving us problems. It was motivation this season, it was very difficult. They showed their level. They deserve to be in the Champions League, congratulations to them. I never come to ceremonies. I prefer to stay at home. You have to study Arsenal. I am very happy to see the level of our team and our players. Congratulations to Pierre Sage, he deserves to win this trophy. It’s incredible what he did.”.
