With the arrivals of Russian goalkeeper Matvey Safonov, Portuguese international João Neves, and more recently promising Ecuadorian defender Pacho, PSG has considerably strengthened its strategic positions. A squad remodeling carried out jointly by Luis Enrique and his sporting director Luis Campos. During a lengthy interview with the club’s media, the Asturian technician spoke about the entire process that precedes the recruitment of a player.

Before a player arrives, we have a very complete report. We carry out a follow-up as in the case of Joao Neves, Pacho, or Safonovexplains Luis Enrique. We follow them for a few months to see if they adapt, because before coming, they often play in teams that play differently from ours. So we have to try to visualize if they would be useful to us. In the case of those we recruited this summer, there is no doubt (…) But if a player has doubts about coming to PSG, we don’t want them, it’s as simple as that. We want players who feel they are coming to Paris to make history, who are hungry. If they hesitate between one club and another, it’s no, and that’s what I tell the players with Luis Campos.»
