The disappointing World Cup Spain in Qatar 2022, with elimination in the round of 16 including vs. Morocco, it was the end of his cycle Luis Enrique at his command Red. A few months later, the coach wants to return to directing and his goal is to Premier Leaguecompetition in which he never participated.
Iván de la Peña, his official agent, wanted Spanish to be an option for some institution by 2024, although everything seems to have moved on. After the departure of Antonio Conte from Tottenham, Luis Enrique appeared among the candidates. However, this opportunity did not materialize. Now I could drop into the other London club, Chelseaafter Graham Potter was fired.
Sports news presents what the scenario is and all the details of the coach’s possible arrival in England.
Will Luis Enrique be the new Chelsea manager?
Graham Potter’s arrival at Chelsea in September 2022, after a very good spell at Brighton, has caused excitement at the club under Todd Bohly. But that ended with the running of the games. His start to 2023, despite staying in the Champions League race (he will play Real Madrid in the quarter-finals), was disappointing and a 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa kept him away from London. A club that is used to fighting for the top spots Today they are playing in the middle of the Premier League table, far from the qualification places for the European Cups.
In this background, Luis Enrique could be found. The Spanish coach is eager to take on this challenge after saying goodbye to Red, which he managed 47 times, with a record of 26 wins, 14 draws and 7 losses. Runner-up in the 2020-2021 Nations League and the semi-finals of Euro 2020 were his most impressive results.
At club level, the coach has nine trophiesall his time at Barcelona: La Liga 2014-2015, Copa del Rey 2014-2015, La Liga 2015-2016, Copa del Rey 2015-2016, Spanish Super Cup 2016, Copa del Rey 2016-2017, Champions League 2015-2015 and European Super Cup 2015-2015 20 Club World Cup 2015.
The coach also drove it Rome, Italy and Celta Vigoclubs where he did not establish himself but had good performances that allowed him to reach the Blaugrana in 2014.
Luis Enrique’s arrival on the Chelsea bench has not only gained traction in the press following the Spaniard’s trip to England, but also in the bookies. The Spaniard, who initially paid 17 to 1, knocked the German out of first place Julian Nagelsmann (Is Tottenham your destination?) and now offers a fee of just 1.50.
Apart from the two already mentioned, other coaches with options to reach London are Mauricio Pochettino, Ruben Amorim, Brendan Rodgers and Zinedine Zidane. With the exception of Amorim, who currently leads Sporting Lisbon, the rest are free.
