Luis Enrique could return to FC Barcelona next summer, according to spanish Media Cadena Ser.
According to Cadena SER, Deco, the sporting director of Barcelona, wants to bring Luis Enrique back to the club. « In an ideal world, Deco’s favorite coach is Luis Enrique. The one they like the most is the Asturian coach, but it remains to be seen whether he can sign or not because he has a contract with PSG. They like young coaches like Arteta or Xabi Alonso. Roberto de Zerbi is also appreciated, and his methods are well known. Obviously, German coaches have always been discussed: Flick, Tuchel… The economic situation is what it is, and it limits as much as it limits, but right now, the coach I like the most is Luis Enrique, » Deco stated.

However, Luis Enrique is generally quite loyal to his clubs and contracts. He is under contract with PSG until 2025 and should therefore honor his commitment. Especially since Barcelona doesn’t have the money to pay for the transfer…
