Barcelona manager Luis Enrique could leave the Nou Camp in the summer, according to reports, even if he leads the club to the treble.
The Daily Mail report that 'those close to him' believe he is resigned to leaving the club, despite being just six matches away from winning La Liga, the Champions League and the Copa del Rey.
With Barcelona set to hold presidential elections at the end of the season, Enrique could leave while his stock is high rather than go through the campaign, which usually ends with the new man picking a new coach.
Enrique has a two-year deal but even if current president Josep Bartomeu is re-elected, the former Spain international may look elsewhere.
Manchester City are likely to be one prospective suitor, report the Mail, with Manuel Pellegrini unlikely to stay after a failed title defence.
