SPORTPSG must get over ‘obsession’ with winning Champions League – Luis Enrique

Luis Enrique, the manager of Paris Saint-Germain, has advised the club not to become obsessed with winning the Champions League title.

The Ligue 1 champions kick up their European campaign against Dortmund at Parc des Princes.

"It's never a good sign when a club is obsessed with something." You must have ambition, but obsession does not work; this is true in all aspects of life.

"We want to play, we want to give our supporters a lot of joy, but there is no obsession," Luis Enrique remarked during a pre-match press conference.

PSG has become synonymous with Champions League failure in recent years, with a string of humiliating exits despite high hopes. However, with Lionel Messi and Neymar both departing this summer, Luis Enrique's squad appears to be a far cry from those that have frequently crashed out of the competition.
