Dembélé reveals the secret behind Luis Enrique’s PSG

In an interview with GQ, Ousmane Dembélé, the 28-year-old forward of Paris Saint-Germain, was asked to explain what coach Luis Enrique has brought since his arrival in 2023.

Dembélé: "It's the path to follow."

"Luis Enrique has mainly brought a new mentality, both to me and to the whole team. He told us to train as we play in matches, to always set an example, and to give our maximum on the field, whether we are the youngest or the oldest. I'm just following the coach's instructions, you know. We have to run, defend, and attack all together. If you don't do it, someone else will take your place! It's the path to follow. It has worked for us, and we have won all these titles like that."

This is a new confirmation of the mindset instilled by coach Luis Enrique, with the help of sports advisor Luis Campos, as the philosophy is clear from the recruitment stage. It's not the first time we've seen such statements, almost word for word. Clearly, the Parisians know that competition is present. There is no status or age.

You have to play for the team, and with quality, of course. Otherwise, the coach will choose someone else. It's beautiful for a collective, the key is to have players who fully adhere. This can slow down some recruitments, while from the outside, one might see "logical" options.

But Paris will not change, no matter the talent. Especially since, it should be noted, the players present are fully in line with Luis Enrique's philosophy. Dembélé's phrase about "the path to follow" is clear.
