The Spanish coach has a good place on the list of coaches who will take charge of PSG next season.

There are many unknowns at PSG. Two days after the end of the competition, the club from the capital is “almost” champion of France. He only needs one point on Saturday night in Strasbourg to definitively rehabilitate the eleventh title in his history and celebrate a week later at the Parc des Princes, waiting for the beginning of a reconciliation with his fans.

It is precisely at this time that the PSG team is activated to prepare for the next campaign, although Luis Campos has been thinking about the summer for weeks: between the return of the mercenaries, the newcomers, the unwanted… construction of the template takes up main space.

Of all these issues, another should irritate the days after winning the title: the choice or not of a new coach. At the moment, the departure of Christophe Galtier, who has one year left on his contract, has not yet been registered, but he is clearly visible in senior positions and a shortlist of several candidates has been drawn up. Among the names that appear there, we find that of Luis Enrique.

Nothing has been decided yet in Doha

Dismissed after the elimination of the Spanish national team in the eighth finals of the 2022 World Cup against Morocco, the former player and coach of FC Barcelona is looking for a new challenge. The technician still has a resume that speaks in his favor.

He won the Champions League in 2015 by knocking out Paris Saint-Germain in the quarter-finals (3-1, 2-0) and directed Neymar. More generally, his past as a player and coach has allowed him to stand shoulder to shoulder and learn to manage dressing rooms with a lot of egos, an important criterion in the capital. Not to mention his offensive game philosophy; based on possession, which he has missed a lot in the last two seasons.

If PSG want to speed up the arrival of Luis Enrique, they will no doubt have to act quickly, as his name regularly returns to Italy to take over from Napoli next season. Nothing has been decided yet on the Doha side.
