Liverpool supporters should not expect to see Luis Enrique named as their next manager, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano.Enrique is the dream candidate to replace Arne Slot having lifted his third Champions League trophy with Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday. If there is any chance of prising him away from Paris, then Liverpool should be all over it.As Romano shares, however, along with Paul Joyce of The Times, the current expectation is that Enrique will stay with the European champions and sign a new contract, with Liverpool pushing ahead with Andoni Iraola.
