PARIS (BN24) — Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) manager Luis Enrique will undergo surgery after suffering a fractured collarbone in a cycling accident, the club confirmed on Friday.
The 53-year-old Spaniard was involved in a crash while riding his bike and was quickly attended to by emergency services. Scans revealed the collarbone injury, but doctors have ruled out any further complications, according to the club’s statement.
“Following a bicycle fall that occurred this Friday, Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique was attended to by emergency services and will undergo surgery for a fractured collarbone,” PSG said on social media platform X. “Paris Saint-Germain wishes to express its full support to Luis Enrique and wishes him a speedy recovery. The club will communicate further information shortly,” the statement continued.
PSG’s next match is against Lens in Ligue 1 on September 14, followed by their Champions League opener against Atalanta just three days later.
Enrique, who joined PSG in 2023, has already achieved considerable success with the club, winning two Ligue 1 titles, two French Cups, and the UEFA Champions League. He also led PSG to a FIFA Club World Cup final appearance. Despite his setback, the Spanish manager’s influence at the club remains pivotal as PSG continue their pursuit of domestic and international glory.
