Luis Enrique delighted to take Barcelona B job

Luis Enrique was unveiled as new Barcelona B coach yesterday.

The former Barca captain revealed he turned down an offer to work with the Spain's youth setup to kickoff his coaching career, but wanted to begin at the Nou Camp.

"I appreciate the confidence of the Federation, but I think I have taken the right decision and this is what I've told Fernando Hierro," Luis Enrique said. "I retired as a player here and now I'm starting my professional career as a coach."
