Luis Enrique may be preparing for the biggest game of his managerial career, but nothing prepared him for the famous Celtic Park atmosphere.
Enrique is aiming to win Paris Saint-Germain their first Champions League title when they face Inter Milan in Munich, with many suggesting that this is the Parisian club’s time.
Celtic’s own European journey came to an end in the same stadium the final is being played in after Bayern Munich broke hearts in the final seconds of the second leg.
The likes of Lionel Messi have hailed the famous Celtic Park atmosphere, particularly on European nights, and Enrique is no different.
Before his trip to Glasgow with Barcelona in 2022, the Spaniard was very complimentary of the Hoops.

What Luis Enrique said about Celtic Park in 2016
A trip to Paradise is daunting for any opposition player and Enrique was no different – even going as far to say it’s among the best he’s heard.
He said: “It will be special because they are a great club with a spectacular atmosphere and we must enjoy it to the fullest and give the best possible account of ourselves.
“We will be happy to go to one of the best stadiums in Europe in terms of atmosphere knowing that their fans will have a great sporting image and offer their full support to the team.”
