PSG's Luis Enrique on CL: “When a club is obsessed, it’s never a good sign.”
Ahead of Paris Saint-Germain’s UEFA Champions League opener against Borussia Dortmund, Luis Enrique addressed the club’s much-documented obsession with winning the elusive European competition.
It is no secret that the Champions League is the holy grail in the eyes of PSG’s QSI owners.
