PSG: Luis Enrique responds sharply to the violence of October 17

Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique addressed security concerns following the October 17 demonstrations in France ahead of a Champions League match against FC Barcelona. Speaking at a pre-match press conference, Enrique firmly refocused attention onto sports, stating that he is not the ideal person to discuss the topic and belongs there to talk solely about football.

Despite violent demonstrations occurring in several cities across France, the Minister of the Interior confirmed that the European fixture would proceed as scheduled. Enrique stated that while he dislikes violence, he feels no fear and remains focused on the sporting challenge, expressing hope that the fixture can be played under normal conditions.
