Barcelona club president Josep Maria Bartomeu has said that Luis Enrique will continue as club's manager after guiding the club to a treble in his debut season.
Bartomeu said that he had no doubt regarding Enrique's continuity, adding that the latter is still under contract and has done a magnificent job, the Guardian reported.
He said that he didn't see any impediments for him to continue in a team who have started a winning cycle and he sees him being very enthusiastic, adding that he had earned full marks for this season.
He also insisted that if re-elected as president, one of the things that he would do was to offer Enrique a contract extension.
Bartomeu further admitted to closely monitoring Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba.
Earlier, 45-year-old Enrique had cast doubts on his future, saying his position at the club was up for discussion.
