Cornella de Llobregat (Barcelona), 25 Mar The president of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), Luis Rubiales, assured that with coach Luis Enrique Martínez he will speak after the World Cup in Qatar to discuss his future and insisted that the coach has all the “confidence, support and admiration”. “José Francisco Molina -sports director of the RFEF-, Luis Enrique and I agreed to speak after the World Cup. Nothing has changed, we are happy,” said the head of the RFEF at the presentation of the sponsorship agreement between the Spanish national team and Artero, the company specializing in products for the welfare of pets. Rubiales stressed that the Asturian coach has “the confidence” of the RFEF after taking office in a “moment of transition” for the Spanish team. “It has meant that at a time of transition the national team has taken tremendous steps to strengthen our style of play. He has done it with his own label. I'm sure everything can be improved, but we are very satisfied,” he said. The president of the RFEF also appreciated Luis Enrique's latest novelty, the large screen installed next to the field of play for training. “Our job is to bother as little as possible and try to help as much as possible. Most of the things that Luis Enrique asks of us, we try to be there so that he has all the tools. We are dedicated to the coaching staff and the players thinking about training,” he argued. Rubiales made these statements on the eve of the friendly match that the national team will play at the RCDE Stadium this Saturday against Albania. The Spanish team returns to Catalonia eighteen years after their last meeting. In this sense, Rubiales was “delighted” to play again in this autonomous community. “We are very excited that everyone who comes to the stands enjoys and that our team will continue to draw conclusions in such an important year. It is spectacular to be in Barcelona and Catalonia, we are very happy”, he concluded. CHIEF vmc/og (video) (photo)
