Luis Enrique: expect three PSG players left out every week after Digne omission

Winless PSG and a weekly rotation warning

For PSG, the squad list now matters as much as the result. Paris Saint-Germain are still without a Ligue 1 win after three matches. They announced contract extensions for Luis Enrique and five players before kick-off against Monaco, then lost at home.

Fabrizio Romano circulated Luis Enrique’s remarks on Lucas Digne being left out of the squad: you need to start getting ready to see three players out every week. The manager also declined to name a title favourite after the winless start. On the Monaco defeat he said that if the same game were replayed ten times, PSG would win eight.

Monaco manager Filipe Luis, after the victory, called Luis Enrique not just the best manager in the world but one of the best ever. The Athletic reported that the night was meant to be a celebration of the new contracts. Instead PSG’s difficult start continued following earlier draws with Rennes and Lille.

The squad comment is the key news. Digne’s omission is not framed as a one-off. Enrique is telling supporters that rotation of three names each week is now policy. That changes who appears on team sheets for the next Ligue 1 fixtures.

The facts are the result, the contracts, Digne’s absence, and the manager’s own words on weekly omissions. PSG are winless, the coach is rotating by design, and three players will be missing from each matchday squad until he says otherwise.
