Luis Enrique: I want Arsenal to win Prem title

Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique has named his favourite to win the Premier League this season.

Enrique was speaking on a Twitch stream to answer questions from fans about his team and other football topics.

Asked about the English top-flight, he stated: "I would like it to be Mikel (Arteta of Arsenal).

"And if it's not him, I would like it to be Pep (Guardiola). Otherwise, Liverpool or Unai Emery's Aston Villa. But I think that It's City who will win."

"We were lucky because we're returning to Spain and me to Barcelona, the city where I spent the majority of my sporting career," added Enrique on his PSG team drawing Barcelona in the Champions League quarter finals.

"We knew that the competition was going to present us with a very high-level team, with a lot of individual quality.

"There are two parts to the draw. We are in the part of the draw – with Barca, Atletico Madrid and Borussia Dortmund – where all four of us have a chance of going to the final, it's great. But we will have to demonstrate [that we have the quality to reach the final] on the pitch.

"In the other half of the draw, there are the favorites with Real Madrid, Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Arsenal. It's probably the most difficult part of the two halves."
