Luis Enrique is having a stellar season with Paris Saint-Germain, having guided the team to the Champions League semi-finals after dispatching Aston Villa and Premier League leaders Liverpool. Yet, according to Spanish outlet El Nacional, the Spanish coach isn’t resting on his success and is already looking to strengthen the squad ahead of next season.
One of his main targets is Barcelona’s rising star, Fermín López. Enrique is reportedly a big admirer of the 21-year-old midfielder, believing he aligns perfectly with his tactical vision. Given that Fermín hasn’t secured a regular starting role under Hansi Flick, PSG sees a potential opportunity to lure him away from Camp Nou.
However, Fermín’s dream remains to establish himself at Barcelona. Despite receiving interest from other top clubs, he has consistently turned down offers, holding firm to his goal of succeeding with his boyhood club.
A product of La Masia, Fermín is known for his energy, technical quality, and knack for getting into scoring positions — qualities that have drawn attention across Europe. Yet it is Enrique who appears most determined to bring him to Paris, hoping to pair him with Ousmane Dembélé in a revitalized PSG midfield.
Barcelona fans and teammates strongly support Fermín, and the club’s management sees him as a valuable long-term asset. They are keen to give him more chances to grow and cement his place in the senior squad.
As the summer transfer window approaches, all eyes will be on Fermín’s next move. While Luis Enrique remains eager to add him to his PSG project, the young midfielder’s heart still lies with Barcelona. Whether he stays to fight for his place or chooses a new challenge in Paris, the coming weeks could be pivotal for his future.
