What happened: PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi publicly anointed manager Luis Enrique as "the best coach in the world" and credited him with sparking "a revolution in football, not just for Paris but for football as a whole." The remarks, relayed by Fabrizio Romano, land on the eve of PSG's Champions League final against Arsenal. They mirror Al-Khelaifi's earlier comments framing Enrique as a footballing revolutionary.
Why it matters: The endorsement cements Enrique's standing inside the club at the most consequential moment of PSG's season, with a first Champions League title in sight. It also reinforces a narrative shift in Paris: a post-Mbappé side that has reached the final on collective identity rather than star power. Public backing from ownership typically signals contract stability and hands Enrique full authority over squad direction into next season.
What to watch: Watch for PSG's team selection and tactical setup in the Champions League final against Arsenal, and for any follow-up on a contract extension for Luis Enrique after the match.
