“I like Luis Enrique and know him as both a person and a Coach. He is ready to achieve great things,” said Italy legend Sandro Mazzola on Tele Radio Stereo.

The veteran also commented on Barca's 3-1 Champions League Final triumph.

“I don't think Barcelona are the best side of all time, but they do have exceptional players. Barca need to be put under pressure in their own half, as if they start to keep possession then it's over. There was simply no contest against Manchester United.”
