Luis Enrique goes hardline as PSG show depth and competition | OneFootball

Luis Enrique signalled a hardline approach at PSG, his pre and in-game decisions in the 2-2 draw at Rennes underlining newfound depth and fierce competition.

According to L'Équipe, the coach now commands a vast attacking pool and can afford more aggressive management. He omitted Bradley Barcola and Ibrahim Mbaye, both keen to leave the club.

Senny Mayulu was also left out, despite a new deal running to 2031 and recent cameos against Aston Villa in the European Super Cup or at Lens in the Trophée des Champions.

Late on, PSG salvaged a point through two goals scored by world champions.

Beyond the result, their French top-flight opener showcased abundance and ultra-competition in Paris, with status shaken up and selection increasingly unforgiving.
