Enrique was not punished by FIFA, and he didn t even ask about slapping Pedro

6:42am, 12 August 2025【Football】

Hupu, August 12, reported by famous reporter Etienne Moatti, Hugo Delom, Paris head coach Enrique was not banned by FIFA.

In the Club World Cup final held on July 13, Paris lost 0-3 to Chelsea. At the end of the game, the very nervous Luis Enrique roughly attacked Chelsea striker Joao Pedro and even slapped him.

This move is very different from the image the Paris coach has established since taking office in the summer of 2023. He is a coach who is very nervous in the coach's seat and sometimes sharp in front of reporters, but he is careful to avoid spreading tension to his team members. This is especially true when directly attacking the opponent.

A month later, the Spaniard was not suspended by FIFA, nor even questioned. This is a surprise at best. FIFA did not mention any disciplinary action against Louis Enrique or give any specific reasons when the team reported requesting comment Monday.

Final decision? It is not clear at this time, but considering that the European Super Cup is coming, it has obviously caused a lot of controversy.

Meanwhile, Joao Neves was sent off for pulling Mark Cucurella's hair in the final and has been suspended for two games. Paris Saint-Germain has only been training for a week, so Warren Zaire Emery should have a chance to start the midfield against Tottenham Hotspur.
