The topic of coitus amongst athletes has always made the rounds during World Cups but Luis Enrique doesn’t expect La Roja stars to shy away from action off the pitch.

Spain National team coach Luis Enrique has revealed his position on his players having sex during the World Cup.

The former Barcelona boss made this known via his official twitch channel while a question-and-answer session with the National team supporters as well as fans.

When asked if his players can have s*x before matches at the Qatar showpiece, he was quoted to have said: « I think it’s normal. It’s not ideal, but I mean… As long as you’re not doing bacchanals. ».

The La Furia Roja manager is certainly not against his players’ engagement beneath the sheets before matches but is surely against the idea of them getting drunk or engaging in wild celebrations this period.

Following his treble win with Barcelona in 2014 and the domestic double with the Blaugrana in his second season, Enrique [52] was first appointed as Spain coach in 2018, before resigning in 2019 due to family reasons.

He later reassumed the position the same year and subsequently lead the team to the semi-finals of Euro 2020 and second place in the 2020–21 Nations League.
