The day after their qualification for the Champions League final to the detriment of Bayern Munich, the Parisians will continue to celebrate. After celebrating this superb accomplishment in Munich the day before, they met this Thursday evening in a chic restaurant in the 16th arrondissement.
This dinner was organized at the initiative of Luis Enrique, who will celebrate his 56th birthday this Friday and wanted to bring his team together for the occasion. He therefore reserved a nice table at the Prunier restaurant, not far from the Arc de Triomphe, a “caviar house” where you can taste seafood and many elegant dishes. A choice address, in the beautiful Parisian neighborhoods, which shows the importance of the evening.
Small peculiarity all the same, the Spanish coach was not there. The Paris Saint-Germain players therefore celebrated their boss’s birthday without him, and took the opportunity to remain on cloud nine and continue to debrief their magical night in Munich.
Everyone knows that the great architect of their success is Luis Enrique. Charismatic, hard worker and tactical genius, the former Barcelona coach shaped the team in his image to take it to a second consecutive Champions League final. With fewer stars but a united collective, the native of Gijón has created a real war machine, “the strongest team in the last three years” as he himself estimated this Wednesday.
