Tottenham and Jose Mourinho may have stolen the thunder, but there was another big managerial change on Tuesday.
Before Spurs parted company with their manager and waited the polite amount of time before announcing his successor, Spain held a press conference to confirm Luis Enrique would be returning to his role with the national team.
This has led to endless articles in the Spanish sport media, and AS look at the changes Enrique may reverse.
Robert Moreno dumped David de Gea as the country’s undisputed first choice goalkeeper, and replaced him with Chelsea’s Kepa Arrizabalaga. It was a controversial choice, despite the Spanish media suggesting for months it was the right one to make.
Whether to bring De Gea back is now being seen as a major test for Enrique, and a sign of how he really feels about what went on when he was away from the role.
Manchester United’s man between the sticks will be hoping that the return of the manager sees the return of his period of being Spain’s first choice.
