Barcelona interested in Luís Enrique return
According to L’Équipe, Barcelona are interested in bringing Luís Enrique back to the club. The Spaniard left the Catalan club back in 2017 and currently occupies the hot seat at Paris Saint-Germain.
Barcelona will be in the market for a new manager come the end of the season, with Xavi announcing that he will depart the club this summer. The La Liga side are therefore in the process of constructing a shortlist of potential successors. Luís Enrique’s name may feature on this shortlist, as per a report from L’Équipe.
Luís Enrique arrived at PSG in the summer on a two-year deal. In his debut season, he looks set to lead Les Parisiens to the Ligue 1 title, whilst the club are also still in the Coupe de France and the UEFA Champions League. The Spaniard has announced a desire to construct a project at the Parc des Princes, which makes a premature departure seem unlikely.
However, that doesn’t stop multiple members of Barcelona’s hierarchy, including Deco, appreciating Luís Enrique’s work. It remains to be seen whether the Catalans will launch a bid to repatriate their former manager.
