Spain Coach Moreno Says Job is Luis Enrique's if He Wants It

Spain coach Robert Moreno says he would leave the job if Luis Enrique decides to return to the national team.

MADRID (AP) – Spain coach Robert Moreno says he would leave the job if Luis Enrique decides to return to the national team.

Moreno says ''he would be delighted to step aside and work with him'' again if the former coach is ready to come back.

Luis Enrique resigned from the national team in June, a few months after his 9-year-old daughter was diagnosed with a type of bone cancer. She died last week.

Moreno, formerly the assistant coach, took over after Luis Enrique resigned.

Moreno says he is Luis Enrique's friend and ''it's still too soon to talk about'' the coaching situation.

Spain will visit Romania on Thursday and host the Faroe Islands on Sept. 8 in qualifying for the 2020 European Championship.
