A report surfaced on Friday regarding Luis Enrique being the name to takeover for Christophe Galtier at Paris Saint-Germain after it was revealed that Julian Nagelsmann wasn’t coming to the French capital.
However, Mundo Deportivo’s Dani Gil reported on Saturday that Enrique’s camp ensures that nothing can be ruled out, but there is nothing with the reigning French champion.
Ayer L'Équipe publicó que Nagelsmann deja de ser opción para el banquillo del PSG.

Enrique is unemployed after leaving the Spanish national team once the 2022 FIFA World Cup ended last December. The former FC Barcelona does have a UEFA Champions League trophy in his cabinet, winning the competition in the 2014-15 season.
It will be interesting to see if Enrique is the man for the job. However, two other names are in the mix: Thiago Motta and Xabi Alonso are candidates for Plan B now that Nagelsmann is out.
PSG has to hire a manager soon to proceed with their summer transfer window plans, as they need to know what system they’ll be playing for the 2023-24 season.
