The treble-winning coach admitted that he does
not know if he will still be in charge of the club
next season, but the defender has no such worrie
Barcelona defender Gerard Pique says he is "sure"
that Luis Enrique will still be in charge of the team
next season.
The former Celta coach saw his side complete a
European and domestic treble on Saturday when
they beat Juventus 3-1 in the Champions League
final in Berlin.
After the game, though, he admitted that he does
not know if he will still be in charge of the team
beyond the summer, but Pique has no such fears
over his boss' future.
"It's not my place to say whether he'll stay or not.
But look at the way he celebrated, he loves this
club. I'm sure he'll stay," Pique said.
The win over the Italian side saw Pique claim his
third European crown with the Catalan side and hi
second treble, having achieved the feat before in
Pep Guardiola's first season in charge.
But the 28-year-old says that the achievement
feels better this time around.
"I've enjoyed this Champions League win the most
It's my third with Barca and it's probably because
we've gone a few years without winning it that it
feels so good. When you haven't won it for a whil
it's a little sweeter.
"When you're small you dream of things like
making your debut for Barcelona and winning
trophies, but nothing like this.
"We've made history and won two trebles. It's a
unique generation. We have to enjoy ourselves an
go for every trophy we can."
The final was Barca and Spain legend Xavi's final
game for the club as he prepares to join Qatari
side Al Sadd in the summer, and Pique was full of
praise for his team-mate.
"He deserves everything, absolutely everything.
He's leaving us but also leaving us a footballing
legacy, a way of playing the game."
