Serena shared an old
Luis Enrique interview through his official
X account.
“You need coaches who are solely focused on developing young players, which means, for me, that the kids must play in different positions,” Luis Enrique said.
“Don’t specialise a kid for just one role. When a kid plays as a full-back, he must know the difficulties of playing as a central midfielder or as a striker.
“Mostly, everyone must play! If your son doesn’t play in the academy of Real Madrid, Barcelona or Atletico, get out. Go down to another tier, but play. Your son must play and try different positions.
“For aspiring coaches, if they want to raise and become coaches, they shouldn’t start with the kids. They look for a result, and kids don’t need this pressure.
“So my advice is, if you want to develop and develop kids, perfect. Work on them, improve their technique, which is the only thing that matters at this age, 13, 14 years old, not the tactics or physical preparation.
“Play them in different positions, change them and let them play because they are getting formed.”
