On the eve of the highly anticipated friendly against the Seattle Sounders, a bold decision by Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique is already generating a lot of buzz. According to several sources within the club, the Spanish coach has decided to drop three players from the starting lineup, stating categorically: 

Among the players sidelined is notably young talent Désiré Doué, who recently arrived at PSG with big ambitions. The news sent shockwaves, not only through the Parisian dressing room, but also on social media, where fans are already questioning the reasons for this radical decision.

Désiré Doué, considered one of the young hopefuls of French football, was quick to react. According to witnesses present at training, the player expressed his frustration vehemently, denouncing a lack of communication from the coaching staff. Some media outlets even reported a tense verbal altercation between Doué and a member of the coaching staff, although the club has not yet officially commented on these allegations.

This decision by Luis Enrique, known for his tactical rigor and his authority over the squad, sends a strong signal from the start of summer training. The Spaniard appears keen to quickly assert his authority and impose a clear hierarchy within a rich but sometimes unstable squad.

The other two players affected by this exclusion have not yet been identified with certainty, but they are also believed to be young players who have struggled to convince in recent training sessions. The coach’s message is clear: only players fully committed to his project will be given a place on the pitch.

It remains to be seen whether this strategy will bear fruit or whether it risks creating lasting tensions in the Parisian dressing room. One thing is certain: PSG’s season is already off to a heated start.
