Paris Saint-Germain have opened talks with Luis Enrique over a new contract, in a move that could end Manchester United’s hopes of luring him to Old Trafford.
Enrique has been linked with United as they continue to assess their long-term coaching plans, but PSG are now working to secure the Spaniard’s future in Paris. The Ligue 1 champions have started discussions aimed at extending his current deal.
The development is a clear signal from PSG that they want stability on the bench and intend to keep Enrique in charge. Any interest from elsewhere would now face a major hurdle, with the French club moving early to protect their position.
Enrique only took charge at PSG recently, but the club’s leadership have been encouraged by his work and the direction of the project. The opening of extension talks underlines the confidence PSG have in his management.
For United, it represents an immediate setback in their manager search. With PSG pushing ahead on a renewal, the chances of Enrique becoming available look increasingly slim.
