Enrique to step down as Spain boss

Luis Enrique is set to quit as Spain manager, according to reports, with assistant Robert Moreno taking over.

Marca are among those to claim that Enrique will step down due to personal reasons.

Moreno has managed the side in the last three matches against Malta, Faroe Islands and Sweden. They won all three.

Enrique became Spain coach last July after the team’s exit from the 2018 World Cup to hosts Russia under interim coach Fernando Hierro after Julen Lopetegui was sacked on the eve of the tournament for negotiating a move to Real Madrid.

He took charge of the UEFA Nations League campaign, where Spain failed to reach the semi-finals, and began their Euro 2020 qualifying campaign but flew home hours before their second game away to Malta in March.
