Luis Enrique Expresses Delight Over Torres Signing for PSG

On the eve of the Trophée des Champions, Luis Enrique cut a relaxed but unmistakably satisfied figure. The reason sat at the heart of almost every question: the arrival of Spanish international Torres.

Enrique did not hide his delight.

"I am happy with his arrival. I think we are improving the team, we are always looking for opportunities," he told the media, setting the tone for PSG’s latest statement in the market.

For the coach, Torres is not just another signing. He is a solution.

"He is an international player, we know him and he adapts perfectly, because he can play anywhere," Enrique said, underlining the versatility that convinced PSG to move. A forward comfortable across the line, capable of drifting wide or attacking centrally, gives Enrique the tactical elasticity he craves.

The praise went beyond pure technique.

"With his mentality, I think it's important to have this type of player," the PSG manager added. For a squad chasing titles on multiple fronts, attitude matters as much as ability.

Enrique also lifted the curtain slightly on the work behind the scenes.

"We continue to work with the president and Campos on the transfer market and we are looking to improve the team." The message was clear: Torres is a major piece, but not necessarily the final one.

This move also reopens a familiar chapter for coach and player. The transfer to Paris reunites Torres with the man who first trusted him on the biggest stage. As Spain head coach, Enrique was the one who handed the forward his debut for the national team, a decision that forged a bond built on faith and performance.

That shared history now shifts to the Parc des Princes. Enrique knows exactly what he is getting; Torres knows exactly what is expected of him. In a club where adaptation can break even the brightest talents, that existing connection could prove decisive as the Spaniard begins his life in France.
