The Spanish coach will not be reunited with his old Barcelona assistant (Picture: Getty)Chelsea have been dealt a blow in their search for a new manager after Luis Enrique’s former assistant informed him he will not be moving to west London, according to reports. Enrique tops Chelsea’s list of potential replacements for under-pressure boss Antonio Conte, who is now widely expected to leave the club in the summer – and perhaps even sooner if the Blues lose to Barcelona. However, former Barca manager Enrique is reluctant to take over until the summer, when his old coaching staff – who are currently all at Celta Vigo – will become available. Unzue, who had a big role under Enrique at Barca, wants to stay at Celta (Picture: Getty)First-team coach Robert Moreno, fitness coach Rafel Pol and team psychologist Joaquin Valdes are all at Celta under Juan Carlos Unzue, who was Enrique’s right-hand man at Camp Nou. But now Catalan newspaper Sport report that Unzue does not want to accompany Enrique to Chelsea, despite his old boss being keen on a reunion.
