Luis Enrique’s Grit and Genius: The Untold Struggles Behind PSG’s Rise to Football Glory
In 2011, Enrique departed for Italy, becoming Roma’s head coach. He struggled to convince in the capital, walking away after one season after failing to guide them to European qualification – then after a year-long sabbatical, he returned to management in 2013 and joined Celta Vigo, where he fared much better and led them to ninth in the table.
It was enough to see Barcelona appoint him as their new manager, replacing Tata Martino at the helm. Despite a shaky start to proceedings, Enrique managed to work his magic as Barcelona won the La Liga title and Copa del Rey, as well as their last Champions League title to date. All in all, he won nine trophies before walking away in 2017.
