Luis Enrique is on Manchester United’s shortlist of candidates to become the club’s manager this summer, sources have told ESPN.
The 51-year-old won the Champions League, Laliga and Copa del Rey treble in 2015 with Barcelona and now being considered along with PSG coach Mauricio Pochettino and Ajax manager Erik Ten Hag by United’s owners.
Luis Enrique appeared to dismiss the prospect of a move to United when, after being asked about speculation linking him to the job last November, he suggested it was April Fool’s Day.
But although he is under contract with Spain until the end of the country’s involvement in the World Cup later this year, his reputation as a coach who plays attractive, attacking football, but also one who imposes discipline on his squad, has attracted him to United.
