Luis Enrique: get used to three PSG players missing every week after Digne omission

Digne omitted — and a standing warning

Luis Enrique has closed the door on Paris Saint-Germain naming the same squad every matchday. After Lucas Digne was left out of the squad, the PSG head coach said supporters need to start getting ready to see three players out every week.

Fabrizio Romano posted the remarks on Saturday: Luis Enrique on Lucas Digne left out of the squad — “You need to start get ready to see three players out every week…”. Digne is the named omission. The coach attached a rotation rule to it.

For PSG followers, the weekly question is now which senior names will not make the matchday list. Enrique has said that three-player cut will be normal, not exceptional.

Why this matters on matchday

Squad size at a club with Champions League and domestic commitments forces selection. Enrique chose to say that out loud after a specific player, Digne, was omitted.

Matches across the top leagues already hinge on last-minute availability. A standing policy of three omissions a week means team-sheet checks are part of the routine for PSG fixtures, not an injury-only exercise. Digne is the first named example in this cycle of comments.

Check licensed Ligue 1 broadcasters for where to watch. Viewers tuning in to PSG should expect the published squad, not a full senior roster, every week.

The bottom line: Digne is out of this squad, and Enrique has told supporters to treat three weekly absences as the new baseline.
