[Saba Sports News] According to French media reports, Paris Saint-Germain is set to extend Luis Enrique’s contract until 2027. The report states that PSG head coach Luis Enrique is about to sign a two-year extension with the club, with the new contract lasting until June 2027. The 54-year-old Spanish coach has demonstrated leadership and coaching philosophy aligned with the club’s new project vision since joining in the summer of 2023. The decision to extend was considered as early as spring, even before Enrique led the team to win both league and cup titles and reach the Champions League semifinals in his first season. PSG executives believe Enrique is the ideal candidate to achieve the club’s new goals, despite some controversy over his recent tough stance in communications with the media. Notably, Enrique enjoys unprecedented power and freedom at PSG; he not only has a say in team selection but also significant influence over player acquisitions. It is reported that Enrique is satisfied with his current working environment and conditions, with a pre-tax monthly salary close to €1 million.
