The new life of Luis Enrique after the resounding failure of Spain in the World Cup in Qatar

After a tough game and a disastrous penalty shootout, Luis Enrique’s Spain was eliminated this Tuesday from the Qatar 2022 World Cup against Morocco. The coach, at a press conference, already clarified that a solution would be sought not only with him in mind, but also with the best for the National Team. Everything seems to indicate that the ex coach culé has his days numbered at the head of La Roja.

There is already talk of possible substitutes and among the most outstanding candidates, Marcelino, as explained by different sports programs such as The spar by Manu Carreno. Be that as it may, what does seem quite likely is the search for a new coach so that the National Team, full of young soccer promises, finds its way towards the next World Cups and Euro Cups.

On the part of Luis Enrique, he has the great support of his wife, Elena Cullell, at home. Their love has not faded after a quarter of a century married. In this time there have been many happy moments that they have experienced, but they have also faced the biggest blow that parents can receive. In August 2019, his youngest daughter, Xana, died at the age of 9 and was the victim of bone cancer.

The coach from Gijón himself has remembered her during these days in Qatar, since on November 27 the little girl would have turned 13 years old. “We are already in the fourteenth day of concentration. Today we not only play against Germany. Today is also a very special day because Xanita would be 13 years old. Love, wherever you are, lots of kisses and have a great day. We love you, “he said in an exciting video.

In a press conference after the game, he also explained how the family handles this painful duel: “That’s how life works, it’s not just beautiful things, but it also consists of managing those moments,” he explained.

Luis Enrique and Elena are also the parents of Pacho, 24, and Sira, 22. The older man also has a great passion for soccer and other sports such as surfing or water skiing. Also, he is an expert in video games. In the League Of Legends it’s all a crack. However, his obligations have not been neglected since he has studied Audit and Financial Management at the UPF Barcelona School of Management.

Sira is more in the media than her older brother, since she is one of the most outstanding promises of the equestrian circuits and the experts in these courses maintain that a very promising future awaits her. In addition, she maintains a sentimental relationship with the Barça striker Ferran Torres, who has also played in this World Cup in Qatar under the orders of her father-in-law.

On Instagram, the young woman has almost 280,000 followers. It is common for her to share images of her with her crush, as she has done in recent days in Qatar. Both Sira and her mother were in the stands of Morocco-Spain. Her disappointed faces after the defeat represented those of an entire country.

Luis Enrique’s affection for La Roja

Luis Enrique, at a press conference, spoke of the uncertainty of his future: “I can’t tell you because I don’t know. Now is not the time to talk about my future. It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter. My contract is up , but already you know that I am very to taste in the Selection and in the Federation”, explained.

In La Roja he feels at home: “Because of what the president (Luis Rubiales) means and the affection of (José Francisco) Molina (sports director). If it were up to me, I would continue all my life. But it is not the case. I have “We have to think calmly about what is best not only for Luis Enrique, but for the team. When I speak with the interested people, everything will influence, of course, all the situations that have occurred”, he sentenced.
