Luis Enrique reveals Barcelona got in touch with him

On 15 March 2024, the quarter-finals of the Champions League 2024 were drawn. PSG were drawn against Barcelona and Movistar recorded the impressions of Luis Enrique.

While giving his impressions of the European match, the Spaniard revealed that he had received a call from Barcelona on one occasion. "Last year there was contact with the board, with the bald man (referring to Luis de la Pena) and I asked them a question," he said.

"I said to them, 'Tell this one who loves me, to know if it's for real if Xavi wins La Liga and Copa del Rey, will you change him?'. I already knew the answer, he didn't need to answer me," he continued.

Thus ended his chance to be back in charge at Barcelona: "It's over. If I had waited, I would probably be in with a chance of coaching."
