Unexpected decision of "Barcelona" coach Luis Enrique to announce his departure from the Catalan team in a few months shocked not only the fans, but also the players.
The reaction of the latter in the locker room was described by the club's midfielder Ivan Rakitic.
"We were the first ones to hear about the coach's decision. He came into the dressing room and announced that he would be leaving the team. We were all shocked and couldn't believe our ears. I didn't expect such a twist and myself, I thought Luis would renew his contract. However, in the end, we were forced to accept it and we wish Enrique all the best.
We want to finish the season as successfully as possible and present as many trophies as possible to the coach," Rakitic said.
