PSG drop major team selection hint ahead of Arsenal second leg as Luis Enrique explains decision

 

Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique has dropped a major hint about his team selection ahead of their crucial Champions League second-leg clash against Arsenal. The Spanish boss made several surprising changes in PSG’s recent Ligue 1 fixture, sparking speculation about his plans for the decisive European encounter.

 

Speaking after PSG’s latest match, Enrique explained his decision to rotate key players, stating, “We have to manage the squad carefully, especially with such an important game coming up. Every player needs to be ready, and sometimes fresh legs make the difference in high-pressure matches.”

 

Notably, star forward Kylian Mbappé was rested, while midfield anchor Vitinha and defender Marquinhos were also given limited minutes. This has led to widespread belief that Enrique is prioritizing peak fitness for the Arsenal showdown, where PSG must overturn a first-leg deficit or secure a win to advance.

 

Fans and pundits are now speculating whether Enrique will revert to his strongest XI or stick with tactical surprises that could catch Mikel Arteta’s side off guard. One thing is certain: PSG are leaving nothing to chance.

 

Will Enrique’s decisions pay off? The answer will come under the Emirates Stadium lights.
