Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique took the opportunity this FIFA break to return to Twitch, where he answered various questions, one of them being about adapting to life in the French capital.
Enrique arrived in a country he has never coached or lived in, so the 53-year-old needed help adapting to his new life in France. During the live stream, he credited Aston Villa and former PSG manager Unai Emery for helping him with his transition.
The former Barcelona boss revealed that Emery has helped him learn a couple of new languages.
“Unai Emery gives me lessons in French and English,” Enrique said. “In addition to being a great coach, he is a great man. My son is a fan of him. Unai Emery’s attitude is the one that everyone should have.”
⚠️Luis Enrique : "Unai Emery me donne des leçons en français et en anglais. En plus d'être un grand entraîneur, c'est un grand homme. Mon fils est fan de lui. L'attitude d'Unai Emery est celle que tout le monde devrait avoir."

Furthermore, the 2015 UEFA Champions League winner reveals what makes Emery a good coach. The Spanish tactician is having an excellent season with Aston Villa, and they are currently in a Champions League spot for next season.
“Unai Emery is a great coach and an excellent communicator,” Enrique said. “My son and his friends are fans of Unai because he succeeds wherever he goes. His attitude should be an example for everyone.”
Luis Enrique : « Unai Emery est un grand entraîneur et un excellent communicant. Mon fils et ses amis sont des fans d'Unai parce connaît la réussite partout où il passe. Son attitude devrait être un exemple pour tout le monde. »

If Enrique has adapted well to living in Paris and coaching in France, perhaps he can envision himself staying long-term and emulating the success that managers like Pep Guardiola or Jurgen Klopp have had.
