Luis Enrique meets with Barca – report

Luis Enrique looks to be Barcelona’s first choice to replace Tata Martino, with reports that he has met with Andoni Zubizarreta.

Cadena SER have claimed that the Celta Vigo Coach held discussions with the Blaugrana’s sporting director on Monday as speculation mounts that the former midfielder will be named as Martino’s successor.

The Argentine tactician has endured a difficult debut campaign at Camp Nou, failing to lift a trophy this term and coming in for criticism for his style of play.

As such, the ex-Barca star looks set to come in over the summer, with the radio station insisting that he has had positive discussions with Zubizarreta.

Other target Ernesto Valverde is said to want to stay at Athletic Bilbao after guiding them to the Champions League this season.
