New Barcelona Coach Luis Enrique Gets Two Year Contract
FC Barcelona new coach Luis Enrique Martinez has now officially become the club's replacement for Gerardo 'Tata' Martino.
Barcelona new coach Luis Enrique has signed a two year contract that will reportedly pay him 6 million euros per year, one million more than was paid to his predecessor.
Luis Enrique Martinez is no stranger to FC Barcelona. He was a player from the 1996-97 season to the 2003-04 season. He also coached the Barcelona B team from 2008-2011, leading it back to the Spanish second division, after an 11 year absence from that circuit.
Luis Enrique had been a favorite to replace Tito Vilanova last year but the club opted for 'Tata' Martino at the last minute.
It is now expected that Luis Enrique will be able to lead the club back to the days of glory and championships. To accomplish this, it is expected that a major upheaval will take place in the team roster, with only a few untouchables who would become the backbone of the team for the following seasons.
