Luis Enrique Unconcerned by PSG's Slow Start to Ligue 1 Season
· Sports · Al Jazeera, Sportstar
Paris Saint-Germain are winless after three matches in the Ligue 1 season following a 2-1 home defeat to Monaco on Friday. The result marks the club's poorest start to a league campaign in 19 years, leaving them two points from three matches and seven points off the pace. Despite the sluggish start, the club recently handed coach Luis Enrique a contract extension until 2030 ahead of their Champions League title defence. Enrique dismissed concerns after the Monaco loss, pointing to statistical dominance in shots and pressing despite the scoreline. The Parisians now prepare to host Slovan Bratislava on Wednesday in their opening Champions League group stage fixture.
