What’s next after this ad

The elimination of Spain against Morocco was fatal to him. After coming out in the round of 16 of the 2022 World Cup with Spain, Luis Enrique was sacked as coach of La Roja. “The president, Luis Rubiales, and the sporting director, José Francisco Molina, transmitted the decision to the coach. (…) The RFEF strongly wishes Luis Enrique and his team the best of luck in their future professional projects”announced the Spanish Federation on Thursday.

But despite this failure, Luis Enrique could bounce back quickly and in a Championship he knows well: La Liga. According to the Spanish media AS, the manager of 52 would be a track very studied by Atlético de Madrid. The Colchoneros are not insensitive to the idea of ​​​​changing coaches, Diego Simeno is no longer indisputable. If he is still in contract until 2024, the Argentine manager only points to 5th place in La Liga and was eliminated prematurely in the group stage of the Champions League.

Manchester United also interested

«I love him very much, personally and professionally. I think he has the talent to coach any team in our league. It is clear that it brings added value to all“Said Atletico general manager Miguel Angel Gil Marin after the Spanish elimination. “Luis Enrique is a spectacular coach and manager. It’s a different idea than what we have at Atlético right now, but why not?added Koke, captain colchonero.

The door is therefore open for the ex-manager of Barça. But Atlético de Madrid are not the only team interested in Luis Enrique. always according to AS, Manchester United would also keep an eye on him. The complicated situation of the club – shaken up in recent months by the news of Cristiano Ronaldo and 5th in the Premier League table – could force the Red Devils to put pressure on Erik ten Hag, who arrived in the summer, and look into Enrique.
