The PSG boss described Slot as a “very good coach” and warned against underestimating Liverpool despite the English side arriving in Paris under heavy pressure.
Liverpool have endured a difficult spell in recent weeks, and scrutiny has intensified following their heavy FA Cup defeat to Manchester City.
That result has increased external pressure around Slot, even though he remains the manager who delivered major success not long ago.
Enrique’s comments suggest Liverpool are still being viewed with respect at the highest level, regardless of their recent domestic struggles.
PSG Boss Refuses to Dismiss Liverpool Threat
Despite PSG’s strong form and status as reigning European champions, Enrique made it clear he sees Liverpool as a dangerous and high-quality opponent.
That public respect may also be a reminder that knockout football often ignores current momentum, reports Liverpool World.
For Slot, hearing that level of recognition from one of Europe’s top coaches could be an important confidence boost before such a huge tie.
Enrique’s message appears to be one of caution rather than confidence.
That mindset may be exactly why PSG continue to be viewed as one of Europe’s most serious contenders.
