Luis Enrique: Man United target makes major decision on his future
Luis Enrique is on Manchester United’s wishlist for the summer, but it appears that prising him away from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) will be next to impossible. The Spaniard is arguably one of the best managers in the world at present, and has transformed the Ligue 1 champions’ fortunes since taking charge.
He caught the imagination of clubs across Europe after winning the treble with Barcelona in the 2014/15 season. After three highly fruitful campaigns with the Catalans and two brief stints with the Spain national team, Enrique took charge at the Parc des Princes in the summer of 2023.
The 55 year old went on to revamp the Parisians’ transfer strategy, helping them deal with Kylian Mbappe’s departure and assemble an enviable squad. Last season, Enrique helped PSG secure a historic treble and further endeared himself to his suitors.

United last won the Premier League in the 2012/13 campaign, which was Sir Alex’s final season in charge. The English giants have had several stuttering starts since then, with big-name managers as well as emerging coaches failing to turn the club’s fortunes around.
David Moyes, who was identified as the legendary Scot’s immediate successor, lost his job before the end of the campaign. Louis van Gaal and Jose Mourinho won trophies at Old Trafford, but failed to get the club back to the top.
