According to PSG, the Spanish coach suffered a broken collarbone and received first aid at the scene before being transported to the hospital for surgery.

"PSG wishes coach Luis Enrique a speedy recovery. Further updates will be provided in due course," the Paris club said.

The incident occurred a week before PSG's return to action after the international break, with a Ligue 1 match against Lens on 14/9. Three days later, they will begin their Champions League title defense against Atalanta at Parc des Princes.

PSG did not specify a recovery timeline, so it's unclear whether Enrique will be able to return to the sidelines for these matches.

Recovery from a broken collarbone typically takes 6 to 8 weeks. Following surgery, Enrique will likely need to wear a sling. He will then begin a strict medical plan, including rehabilitation exercises to regain flexibility.

Enrique has been an avid cyclist since retiring from professional soccer in 2004. The former Spanish player frequently participates in international mountain biking competitions and considers it a major hobby. He even announced the Spanish national team roster while cycling in 2022.

The Spanish coach once lived in Australia to practice surfing. He has also participated in several endurance sporting events, including the 2005 New York City Marathon, the 2006 Amsterdam Marathon, the 2007 Firenze Marathon, and the 2008 Marathon des Sables. He even completed the 2007 Ironman Frankfurt and registered for the 2008 Ironman Klagenfurt, but later withdrew to accept the coaching position for Barca's B team.

Enrique has coached PSG since 2023 and just completed a historic season. He implemented a three-forward system with sharp transitions. This style led PSG to domestic titles in Ligue 1, the French Cup, and the French Super Cup, as well as their first Champions League and European Super Cup titles. They reached the final of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, but lost 0-3 to Chelsea.

Enrique was also a prominent figure during his playing career. He played for both Real Madrid and Barca, represented Spain in three World Cups (1994, 1998, 2002), and Euro 1996. He was also a member of the Spanish team that won gold at the 1992 Barcelona Summer Olympics.
