PSG's Extension with Luis Enrique Hinges on UCL Success
Luis Enrique’s contract extension with PSG until 2027 is contingent on Champions League progress, with his future undergoing key tests in January.
Paris Saint-Germain has reportedly extended Luis Enrique's contract until 2027, but the official announcement is tied to the club's performance in the Champions League. According to sources, Enrique will face critical evaluations in January, with decisive group-stage matches against Manchester City and Stuttgart.
Despite Enrique's successful start in Ligue 1, where PSG holds a commanding 10-point lead and has advanced in the French Cup, their European campaign remains underwhelming. The club has secured only seven points from a possible 18, putting their progression in jeopardy.
Initially, PSG planned to announce the extension after a November clash with Atletico Madrid. However, a last-minute 2-1 loss to Atletico, sealed by Angel Correa’s late goal, delayed the decision. Enrique signed the renewal in October before facing Arsenal, following months of negotiations reflecting mutual commitment.
PSG President Nasser Al-Khelaifi has expressed satisfaction with Enrique's performance, stating that even an early Champions League exit would not result in his dismissal. However, fans and analysts alike recognize that European success is critical to defining the club's season.
