Luis Enrique's funny interaction with young Journalist 

The club's coach recently attended a pre-match press conference ahead of their away Ligue One fixture against Nantes. Upon entering the press conference hall, Luis Enrique was surprised to see a very young journalist sitting in the front row. The PSG manager halted on the stage and shared a few words with him. Enrique enquired whether he was new to his role.

"You're new, aren't you? Surely you want to be a sports journalist? Wow,"  He said.

"Wait, we have got the new guy's question left; go ahead," Enrique added during the press conference.

Enrique addressed a few important questions moving towards the business end of the season. He talked about managing playtime, their squad depth and their upcoming fixtures.

"To achieve the objectives we have set ourselves, we need at least 16, 18 or even 20 players. We try to ensure that they are all connected. It's difficult, but I think that's the way to perform at our best. In that sense, I'm very happy with the squad I have at my disposal," Luis said.

"There are many factors to consider. You have to take a broad view and assess the physical and emotional state of each player. It's very important to manage workloads, especially in a team that plays so much. There are many variables to take into account, and we try to manage them. I'm satisfied with how we've handled it so far." Luis added.

Luis Enrique looks determined to guide Paris Saint-Germain to their maiden UCL glory. The energetic bunch of new players in the squad have ravaged most of their opposition this season.
