PARIS (FRANCE) (ITALPRESS) – “Will we see Nuno Mendes as a winger again and Beraldo in midfield? My dream is to have 20 players capable of playing anywhere. Nuno Mendes as a full-back, winger, number 9… Just imagine the opposing coach. It’s something difficult to achieve, but I’m working in that direction.”
Luis Enrique does not rule out further experiments for his PSG ahead of the final stretch of the season, where the reigning European champions are aiming to retain the Champions League title and confirm their dominance in Ligue 1.
Meanwhile, after the international break, Toulouse await: “There are no injuries. We’ll see after Thursday afternoon’s training session what the players’ real physical and mental condition is. It’s like Tetris: you have to consider not only the minutes played and the travel, but also how the players feel. To win, we need everyone—it’s important to have players ready to play at any moment.”
The Spanish coach also brushed off controversy over the postponement of the match against Lens: “I can understand that there are different points of view, I understand Lens, it’s normal. But we have to accept what has been decided.”
As for “L’Équipe” revealing his €12 million gross annual salary, he shrugged it off: “Do you really think the players care about my salary? Talking about this is inappropriate. Of course, I am one of the highest-paid coaches in the world—and that’s a good thing for me.”
