Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has officially announced the contract extension of coach Luis Enrique until June 2030. It is a statement of intent from the current European champion.

The board led by Nasser Al Khelaifi made the agreement public before the Ligue 1 match against Monaco, also extending the contracts of midfielders Senny Mayulu, João Neves, and Fabián Ruiz, as well as defenders Willian Pacho and Lucas Beraldo.

Contractual details of Luis Enrique's agreement and the core of the squad

The extension of the contract for the 56-year-old coach extends his previous commitment, which was set to expire at the end of the current 2026-2027 season after his last renewal in February 2025. Under the guidance of the Asturian coach, the French club has secured 3 consecutive Ligue 1 titles and 2 UEFA Champions League trophies, won in 2025 and 2026.

At the same event, the club ensured the long-term presence of its young core. Senny Mayulu (20 years old), João Neves (21 years old), Willian Pacho (24 years old), and Lucas Beraldo (22 years old) signed new extensions until June 2031, while midfielder Fabián Ruiz (30 years old) renewed his contract until June 2028.

The sporting project following the departures of key figures

Since Luis Enrique took over in 2023, Paris Saint-Germain redefined its transfer policy following the exits of Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Sergio Ramos. The club's leadership prioritized building a young squad to sustain competitiveness in European competitions over the next decade.

Al Khelaifi confirmed that the group of renewed players forms the foundation of the institutional project for the upcoming years. The announcement comes just days before they begin their campaign to defend the continental title in the group stage.

PSG will play their league match against Monaco this Friday before focusing on the UEFA Champions League. Under the guidance of Luis Enrique, the team will face Slovan Bratislava at Parc des Princes on Wednesday, September 9, 2026, for the opening match of the European tournament.
