PSG's head coach, Luis Enrique, commented on Barcelona's ten-day break before the Champions League match, as reported by RMC Sport.

According to the Spanish coach, it's preferable to play several matches rather than have such a prolonged rest period.

"Barcelona will have ten days off, whereas we have competitive matches. In my situation, I believe it's best to play these three matches. If I had ten days off, I would also need to adapt to such circumstances," stated Enrique.

PSG is scheduled to play against Rennes in the French Cup on Wednesday, April 3rd, and against Clermont on the weekend, April 6th. Barcelona defeated Las Palmas on March 30th and now has a ten-day break.

Barcelona and PSG will meet in the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals on Wednesday, April 10th.

It's worth noting that Real Madrid's head coach, Carlo Ancelotti, gave his commentary on the remarks made by Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola. The "City" manager stated that his team has to play matches every three days before the clash with Real Madrid, while the opponent will have a nine-day preparation period.
