3 reasons why Paris Saint-Germain could become one of the greatest team in history

Earlier this week, Paris delivered another extraordinary performance in the Champions League, dominating Villareal 6-0 away as they secured their fourth victory to open their European campaign. The Parisians remained perfect as they defend their European crown for a second season as they look to equal Zinedine Zidane's Real Madrid record of three consecutive Champions League titles.

This team shows every week that they have the potential to realise this incredible exploit as they dominate domestically and in Europe. This domination started when the club brought Luis Enrique at the helm of the team as he built a real team, able to withstand any type of pressure. After four years under the former FC Barcelona coach's guidance this team is ready to potentially become one of the greatest team of the history of football.

While their domination in Europe is undoubted, there could be many things missing for this team to be considered such as a third consecutive title in the Champions League or extending their Ligue 1 title winning streak. Here are three reasons why this team has already everything to become one of the greatest ever.

Three reasons why Paris could become one of the greatest team in history

1- All-Time coach

After he spell at FC Barcelona that saw him win the Champions League in 2015, Luis Enrique struggled to find the top once again, even after taking charge of the Spain national team in 2018. Nonetheless, he remained one of the most highly rated coaches in Europe as his team always played an attractive brand of football.

However, since joining Paris in 2023, the 56-year-old coach and the club reached new heights. Together, they won three Ligue 1 titles and two Champions League, making it three for him personally, which placed him among the best in history.

Additionally, his PSG his showcasing a level of dominance rarely seen before, rivalling Pep Guardiola's Barcelona. Luis Enrique's team always rises up to the occasion as they once again proved against Man City and Barcelona recently in the Champions League. If he were to stop his career tomorrow, he would undoubtedly be considered one of the greatest ever.

2- Amazing players core

While the coach is very important to make a team play amazing football, there are also players on the pitch that deliver great performances and win trophies. In the case of many great teams in the history of the game, they all had an amazing core of players that instilled fear in their opponents.

For PSG, Nuno Mendes, Achraf Hakimi, Marquinhos and Pacho are the base of the team, making them one of the best defence in Europe when at their best. In midfield, Vitinha, Joao Neves and Fabian Ruiz are arguably the best midifeld trio in Europe at the moment as they are able to dictate the game and create countless differences through their movements or passes.

In the offensive line, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Ousmane Dembélé and Désiré Doué are constantly bringing danger and delivering the final blows to win game through magical moments. Dembélé was named 2025 Ballon d'Or after his fantastic campaign that helped PSG win their first Champions League. These 10 players are not the only one contributing to the success of the club, but are the core that make this team so formidable under Luis Enrique.

3- Unwavering European domination

To finish, the last point is their domination in Europe that need to continue. Even if the team doesn't manage to win a third consecutive Champions League, they need to consistently reach the semi-finals or finals of the competition and potentially win several European trophies in the next few years.
