PSG has started 2025 in a positive way, consolidating itself as one of the most competitive teams under the direction of Luis Enrique.
Beyond the results, the Spanish coach has managed to reinforce the identity of the team, prioritizing the collective game and the creation of a true family within the dressing room.
One of the key aspects has been the management of the squad, with the winter market marking six important departures of players who did not have minutes.
This process is part of Luis Enrique’s strategy to build a balanced and highly competitive team, in which all players know their role and contribute to the team’s scheme.
Luis Enrique reveals PSG’s challenges and clear objectives
In his recent press conference prior to the match against AS Monaco, Luis Enrique stressed the importance of managing the calendar and adjusting his tactical schemes to face the challenges in Ligue 1, Coupe de France and UEFA Champions League.
It’s a Tetris game. You can plan your activities, but you may have our players locked up in training or unsuspended. We need to resolve this management and game times but they are difficult.
Luis Enrique
PSG’s main objective remains to win as many titles as possible, and to do so, match planning and player rotation are key elements in the coach’s strategy.
Within this structure, there are footballers who are shining with their own light. Ousmane Dembele has emerged as the team’s star player with his explosiveness and offensive ability.
Competition keeps you in shape. It is a stimulus. Training before and after matches does not have an additional physical load. Excessive loads are avoided and mistakes are corrected on video.

While Joao Neves and Vitinha are demonstrating absolute dominance in the midfield, bringing balance and dynamism to the team.
A great challenge for PSG against AS Monaco
The next challenge will be against AS Monaco, in a crucial Ligue 1 match. PSG comes into this match as the only undefeated team in the championship, with an impressive record of 15 wins and 5 draws in 20 matches, as shown by SofaScore.
However, they will face one of the strongest teams in France, so it will be a key test to maintain their streak.
Fortunately, PSG will have the advantage of playing at the Parc des Princes, a venue where the team has been unbeatable this season.
With a solid squad and a well-defined strategy, Luis Enrique’s men will be looking for another victory that will bring them even closer to their ambitious goals.
