Barcelona entrusts Enrique with delivering change

By Associated Press in Madrid | China Daily | Updated: 2014-05-21 06:48

Barcelona promised change, and delivered it quickly.

By bringing in Luis Enrique as the team's new coach, Barcelona is returning to the philosophy of having a former player in charge after the failed one-year tenure of Gerardo Martino.

The 44-year-old Enrique, who was appointed on Monday on a two-year contract, will no doubt be expected to also return the team to its beloved "tiki-taka" style of soccer - which Martino decided to abandon on Saturday when he opted to leave Xavi Hernandez on the bench in the title-decider against Atletico Madrid.
