Luis Enrique Brushed off the Rubiales controversy

Luis Enrique brushed off the Rubiales controversy during his Friday interview. The scandal involved Luis Rubiales, the president of the Spanish Football Federation, kissing the player Hermoso without her consent.

Having worked together during Luis Rubiales’ tenure as president, which began on May 17, 2018, when Luis Enrique was the head coach of the Spanish national team, it was natural for questions to arise about the incident. Despite the ongoing debate about Rubiales’ refusal to step down following the incident, Luis Enrique chose not to delve into the matter extensively.

« Luis Rubiales’ work has been exceptional, as evident from the results. The president has acknowledged his mistake. I believe my opinion isn’t really necessary on this topic, » Luis Enrique stated, downplaying his involvement in the controversy.
