Luis Enrique 'delighted' Asensio can face PSG in Champions League

Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique expressed his satisfaction regarding Marco Asensio's ability to play against his parent club in the Champions League quarter-final first leg against Aston Villa. Asensio, who has been on loan at Villa since January, has made a significant impact, scoring eight goals in 11 games. Under UEFA rules, loan players are allowed to face their parent clubs in European competitions, and Enrique is pleased with Asensio's performance, noting his previous contributions to PSG and the Spanish national team. He emphasized that the match would not be a walkover despite PSG being heavy favorites, as Villa, managed by Unai Emery, possesses a versatile squad. Enrique highlighted the challenge posed by Villa's tactical adaptability and stressed the need for PSG to earn their victory on the pitch. The first leg is set for Wednesday at Parc des Princes, with the return leg on April 15 at Villa Park.
