Luis Enrique returns: the hard months of his absence, focused on family and cycling
Robert Moreno: "If I had not followed, Luis Enrique would not be the coach now"
Robert Moreno was born in the Maternity Hospital of Barcelona on September 19, 1977 . Just 10 minutes walk from the Camp Nou stadium, where he was part of the technical staff of Luis Enrique in Barcelona. Curiously it has been Luis Enrique, his friend for 12 years, who has decided to do without his work, in a week in which the reproaches between them have happened. "It's disloyal," was the strongest term used by the new Spanish coach.
From Seville's father and mother from Cáceres, Robert Moreno graduated in Commerce and International Relations from the University of Barcelona. Before, he attended a year of Law, a career he abandoned. However, what really fascinated the former coach was always football. Specifically, be a coach.
In the club of Hospitalet La Florida he gave his first strokes on the benches, with just 14 years. Such was his vocation that a year before beginning his university studies, he obtained the first level coach course in the Catalan Federation. In 2003, becoming the youngest of his promotion, he took the highest level title, the national coach.
However, his beginnings in professional football were long in coming. Before that, he worked at the gentlemen's plant in El Corte Inglés de Cornellá and in La Caixa. And it was in 2007 when Luis Enrique personally contacted him to be part of his coaching staff. Since then, and until this week, they have been inseparable. They shared a bench at FC Barcelona, in Roma, in Celta de Vigo and in the Spanish national team.
Moreno always combined his work as an analyst with his fondness for reading. So much so that in 2013 he decided to found his own publishing house with his wife, Lourdes Torrecillas, of which there are hardly any images. Book Soccer is the name of this society, which offers all kinds of publications about the analysis of the game and stories of the players themselves.
He has been living in the Casteldefels neighborhood for years, where football players from Barcelona and Espanyol usually live. However, Moreno owns a house in the less luxurious area, in an urbanization with a communal pool.
Journalists gathered at the door of his home this week to hear his opinion about the hard attacks of Luis Enrique. "I still don't know why he doesn't want me to be with him; he labeled me with a very ugly adjective that I don't deserve," Moreno said Thursday at a press conference held at a hotel in Barcelona, after his departure from the Federation. A march that, incidentally, led to compensation of 500,000 euros.
