Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique has been crowned Best Coach at the 2025 Ballon d’Or ceremony, winning the prestigious Johan Cruyff Trophy.
The 55-year-old Spaniard succeeds former Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti.
He finishes ahead of top contenders including Arne Slot, Enzo Maresca, Hansi Flick, and Antonio Conte.
Enrique’s recognition comes on the back of a remarkable 2024/25 campaign.
He guided PSG to their first-ever UEFA Champions League title, coupled with the Ligue 1 crown and several domestic honours.
Also, his tactical brilliance and ability to rebuild the squad after the high-profile exits of Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Kylian Mbappé have been widely praised.
Since taking charge of PSG in July 2023, Enrique has introduced a possession-heavy playing style while integrating emerging young talents into the team.
He reshapes the Parisian giants into a more balanced and dominant force.
The Ballon d’Or awards, organised annually by France Football, celebrate the world’s finest in football.
