Enrique targets third consecutive Champions League title
Paris Saint-Germain head coach Luis Enrique says his squad is focused on winning a third straight UEFA Champions League trophy after their Super Cup win.
Paris Saint-Germain head coach Luis Enrique has stated that his team is focused on winning a third consecutive UEFA Champions League title. The French side secured the UEFA Super Cup on Wednesday with a 2-1 victory over Aston Villa.
This win allowed PSG to defend their Super Cup title, which they previously won in 2025 after defeating Tottenham in a penalty shootout. Enrique noted that the match against Villa was expected to be a difficult encounter.
Despite the team not being at their peak physical condition, Enrique credited the players for demonstrating the club's identity. He mentioned that the players showed their capabilities and acknowledged the role of the supporters in helping the club maintain high standards and secure trophies.
Reflecting on the club's journey, Enrique noted that critics previously claimed the squad was too young three years ago, a claim the team disproved. He admitted that while there are areas for improvement and known weaknesses, the mentality of the players is excellent.
Enrique emphasized that the club must remain ambitious and believe in their ability to achieve a third straight Champions League trophy. He warned against relaxation, noting that while the goal is difficult, it is the primary objective for the squad.
The coach highlighted the difficulty of winning multiple trophies and the importance of maintaining professionalism. He added that the players are easy to motivate and that the team aims to remain ambitious in their pursuit of further silverware.
