Barcelona coach Luis Enrique dismissed questions about whether he will stay on next season, saying he will comment once the current campaign, when the Catalan giants could secure a treble of trophies, is over.
Coming to the end of his first term in charge at the Nou Camp, Luis Enrique has a contract until June 2016 but the club is due to hold elections for president over the summer and a new regime could decide fresh faces are needed.
Barca wrapped up a fifth La Liga title in seven years last weekend and are through to the King’s Cup final to play Athletic Bilbao on May 30 and face Juventus in the Champions League final a week later.
They host Deportivo La Coruna in their final La Liga match of the season today.
“I have nothing to say,” said Luis Enrique when asked about his future. “I have three matches ahead of me and I will talk once the season is over,” added the former Barca and Spain midfielder.
He said he had not yet discussed preparations for next term with the club’s technical committee.
Luis Enrique said midfielder Xavi, who announced on Thursday he was leaving to join Qatari side Al Sadd, would start today’s match against Deportivo, after which the club captain will present the La Liga trophy to fans.
If Barca win the domestic Cup and Europe’s elite club competition, they would repeat their achievement from 2008-09 under Pep Guardiola, when they became the first Spanish team to win the treble.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti will discuss his future with the club after todays's at home to Getafe and said he wants to stay on despite a season without a major trophy.
