Man City watchful as Enrique prepares for Barcelona exit

Luis Enrique could leave Barcelona this summer according to reports.

The Daily Mail suggests that the 44-year old could be on his way out the Camp Nou exit door as the Catalan giants get set for their club elections in July.

Barcelona could undergo alterations in the summer with suggestions that the elections may bring about a change in president which would see Josep Maria Bartomeu, who replaced Joan Laporta in January 2014, dismissed from his post.

The report proposes that Manchester City are on alert in case Enrique becomes available even if he happens to guide Barca to the La Liga/Champions League/Spanish Cup treble.

Manuel Pellegrini's future at the Etihad Stadium is uncertain after failing to defend the Premier League title he won last season and he could find himself on the hunt for a new job if the reports of Enrique leaving Barcelona are indeed true.
