The end of a summer that was eventful to say the least. In addition to the Kylian Mbappé file and the Marco Verratti, Julian Draxler and Georginio Wijnaldum soap operas, which have still not delivered their verdict, Paris Saint-Germain has not been idle to seduce its new architect, Luis Enrique. Inducted on the Paris bench after the departure of Christophe Galtier, the Spanish technician was able to appreciate the work carried out by Luis Campos and his teams. An overall success underlined by the former coach of La Roja.

Luis Enrique thanks his management…

“I can only congratulate the president and Luis Campos for the wonderful transfer window they have had. These conditions are perfect for a coach. Now it comes down to who deserves to play. I am extremely satisfied, the transfer window has been excellent, all my requests have been met, each position is now doubled, it is now up to the staff and the players to return the confidence that has been granted to them. In terms of sales too, the success of this transfer window, and it’s my first at PSG, is obvious. We set up a project for the future. The president and Luis Campos have done a very good job.”thus recognized the new strong man of the Red and Blue.

Result ? Eleven new faces landed in the City of Light (Ousmane Dembelé, Kang-In Lee, Lucas Hernandez, Manuel Ugarte, Bradley Barcola, Goncalo Ramos, Milan Skriniar, Marco Asensio, Cher Ndour, Arnau Tenas and Randal Kolo Muani, snatched from the Eintracht Frankfurt in the last hours of the transfer window). In terms of departures, PSG can also congratulate themselves on having slimmed down in large widths. Thus, Neymar, Lionel Messi, Mauro Icardi, El Chadaille Bitshiabu, Lucas Lavallée, Juan Bernat, Renato Sanches, Leandro Paredes, Abdou Diallo, Djeidi Gassama, Ismael Gharbi, Noha Lemina, Timothée Pembélé, Colin Dagba, Nehemiah Fernandez-Veliz or even Vimoj Muntu Wa Mungu left the capital.

… and now wants to find the right formula!

If the Parisian coach has, moreover, refused to expand on the Marco Verratti and Julian Draxler files, he, on the other hand, insisted on the relevance of the transfer window achieved, specifying that another environment would not necessarily have been useful. for his collective. “I think it was unnecessary. I have a lot of players in the midline and I’m sure that’s enough for the season.”added Luis Enrique before announcing one of his great challenges to come… “What I have in front of me is an infinity of options, with internationals, young people, quality. Of course, if the players know each other well, it’s better, but it’s now up to the staff to work to find the best possible combinations, it’s an additional challenge for me..

Finding the perfect chemistry is therefore the main mission of the new builder of PSG in the weeks to come. And while some observers and supporters were worried about fierce competition and possible players relegated to the substitutes’ bench, Luis Enrique was quick to defuse any doubts. “Gonçalo Ramos replacing really? (laughs) you’ll see, you’ll get to know me (laughs). I want 20 starters, not 11, 12 or 13. With 20 or 22 starters, we will be ready for all competitions. You will get to know me and you will see that the status of holder and substitute does not exist.. The contours of the PSG version Luis Enrique are drawn. Now it’s time for the show with a first trip to Groupama Stadium, this Sunday at 8:45 p.m., against OL.
