Template:Spanish name Luis Enrique Martínez García (born 8 May 1970), known as Luis Enrique, is a retired Spanish footballer, and the current head coach of Serie A club Roma. His usual position was right or attacking midfielder, but he was notable for his versatility, having played in all positions throughout his career except central defender and goalkeeper.
Starting in 1991 and ending in 2004, he represented both Real Madrid and Barcelona, with equal individual and team success, appearing in more than 500 official games and scoring more than 100 goals. Enrique represented his country in three World Cups and one European Championship - and was also noted for his temperament and stamina.
Playing career
Luis Enrique was born in Gijón, Asturias. After starting his career with local Sporting de Gijón, he spent most of it with the two biggest Spanish clubs: first Real Madrid for five seasons and, in a stunning move, he saw out his contract and moved to fierce rivals Barcelona on a free transfer. The Catalan club's supporters were at first understandably hesitant about their new acquisition, but he soon won the culés heart, staying eight years with the club, eventually becoming first-team captain, and scoring several times in El Clásico against his former employers. In his first three seasons with Barcelona, Enrique netted 46 La Liga goals, with Barça finishing runner-up in 1996–97, subsequently winning back-to-back domestic championship accolades. On 10 August 2004, at the age of 34, he announced his retirement, feeling that he could no longer keep up to the standards he set for himself.[1] Enrique finished his professional career with league totals of 400 games and 102 goals, being named by Pelé as one of the top 125 greatest living footballers in March.[2]
International career
Luis Enrique played for Spain in three FIFA World Cups: 1994, 1998 and 2002 (as well as UEFA Euro 1996), and accumulated 62 caps, scoring 12 goals in his international career. He was also a member of the gold-winning squad at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona. In the 1994 World Cup, held in the United States, in the 1–2 quarterfinal loss against Italy, Mauro Tassotti's elbow made contact with Enrique's face to bloody effect.[3] The action was of such impact that Enrique reportedly lost a pint of blood from his face as a result. During the match the incident went unpunished. Tassotti was banned for eight games afterwards, and never played for Italy again.[4] When Spain met Italy at Euro 2008 on 22 June, to battle for a place in the semifinals, Enrique reportedly called for the team to "take revenge" on Italy for the 1994 World Cup incident.[5] Tassotti, now an assistant coach at his beloved A.C. Milan, told Marca newspaper that he was tired of always being reminded of this incident and that he had never intended to hurt Enrique.
Coaching career
Barcelona B
On 18 June 2008, Luis Enrique returned to Barcelona, taking over the reins of the B team, renamed Barcelona Atlètic for that season. As he succeeded longtime Barça teammate Josep Guardiola, he stated: "I have come home", and "I finished playing here and now I will start coaching here." As his predecessor, he too eventually had success, helping the club return to division two after an absence of 11 years, in his second season. In mid-March 2011, Enrique announced his departure from Barcelona B at the end of the season, despite still having two years left on his contract.[6] He led the side to the promotion playoffs, but it was ineligible for promotion.
Roma
On 8 June 2011, Enrique reached an agreement with Serie A club Roma to become the Giallorossi's new head coach. He signed a two-year contract, being joined by a staff of four members, including Iván de la Peña, who played two years for crosstown rivals Lazio, as technical collaborator.[7] Roma was eliminated from the UEFA Europa League by Slovan Bratislava, amidst great discussion of the substitution of legendary Francesco Totti by Stefano Okaka Chuka. The capital club also lost their first game in the league against Cagliari Calcio, making it just the third time that it lost the opener in 18 years.[8]
