Luis de la Fuente will replace Enrique as the coach.

After losing to Morocco Luis Enrique was let go as the coach for Spain in a move that shocked some. News came after that Luis de la Fuente will replace Enrique going forward.

De la Fuente, who is 61 years old, took Spain's under-19 side to a European Championship title in 2015 and led the under-21s to the same honor in 2019.

A statement from the Spanish FA said: “The RFEF would like to thank Luis Enrique and his entire coaching staff at the helm of the absolute national team in recent years.

“The RFEF has chosen Luis de la Fuente as the new national coach. The sporting director, Jose Francisco Molina, has transferred a report to the president, Luis Rubiales, in which he recommends the coach to lead the new chapter that begins after the World Cup in Qatar.

“The RFEF board of directors must approve the appointment next Monday.”

Following the approvals, De la Fuente will be announced as the new coach for the team.

Spain started off the tournament strongly with a 7-0 win over Costa Rica but from that point the team started performing poorly.

In their statement, the Spanish FA added: “The RFEF energetically wishes Luis Enrique and his team the best of luck in their future professional projects.

“The coach earns the love and admiration of his collaborators in the national team and of the entire federation, which will always be his home.”

Spain had the third-youngest team at the World Cup, with three players under 21 as starters.
