PSG reward Luis Enrique’s trophy haul with reported €20m annual salary

Paris Saint-Germain have extended Luis Enrique’s contract until the summer of 2030, with the new agreement expected to increase the Spanish manager’s gross annual salary to about €20m.

The club confirmed the renewal on Friday. According to Sport, citing French newspaper L’Equipe, the deal represents a substantial rise on Enrique’s current earnings.

His existing salary is estimated at approximately €1m gross per month, equivalent to around €12m per year. The new terms would therefore give him an additional €8m each season, marking a significant increase in his pay.

L’Equipe reported that the rise reflects the status Enrique has established since taking charge of Paris Saint-Germain in 2023. Club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi is understood to regard him as the best manager in the world, and the new contract places Enrique among the highest-paid coaches in football.

The salary increase comes after a period of unprecedented success for Paris Saint-Germain under Enrique. The 55-year-old has become the most decorated manager in the club’s history, having guided them to 13 trophies since his arrival.

His honours include three French league titles and two Coupe de France victories. Most significantly, he has also led Paris Saint-Germain to the first two UEFA Champions League triumphs in their history, alongside further domestic and international silverware.

Last season was particularly remarkable for the club. Paris Saint-Germain won the French league title for a fifth consecutive campaign and retained the UEFA Champions League, making them European champions for a second time.

That success has strengthened Enrique’s position at the club and helped justify the improved financial terms in his renewed contract. He will now remain in charge at Paris Saint-Germain through to 2030, as the club seeks to build on the most successful period in its history.

Enrique arrived in Paris in 2023 after previously managing Barcelona and the Spain national team. His first major task at Paris Saint-Germain was to develop a team capable of competing for the biggest honours while maintaining domestic dominance.

The club’s latest achievements have made him a central figure in its sporting project. His new contract not only extends his tenure but also reflects the value Paris Saint-Germain place on the trophies secured during his time in charge.

With a reported gross salary of €20m per season, Enrique will now be one of the best-paid managers in the world. The figure is around two-thirds higher than the estimated €12m he earns under his previous agreement.
