Luis Enrique, the coach of Paris Saint-Germain, is reportedly having tense relations with French media, raising concerns within the club, as reported by L’Equipe.
Tensions between Luis Enrique and journalists, including an incident with Alexandre Ruiz, have been observed. The clashes seem to stem from issues such as repetitive or poorly framed questions and terse responses that lack explanation, according to L’Equipe.
This challenging communication dynamic has led to unproductive exchanges between Luis Enrique and the press. However, it is worth noting that Luis Enrique is described as warm and dedicated to his group of players. He seems to be attempting to defend his players during press conferences, which fosters positive relations within the team.
One insider explained, “The players feel that Luis Enrique tries to defend them at every press conference, so they don’t see any issue with that. Players don’t really care about their problems with the journalists; it’s not their priority.”
According to L’Equipe, PSG is considering arranging more intimate meetings from time to time outside of press conferences, allowing the coach to elaborate on his ideas with journalists. However, Luis Enrique appears determined to absorb the journalistic pressure to protect his players.
