“The decision has been taken due to results and performances not being at the level required. We have asked Freddie Ljungberg to take responsibility for the first team as interim head coach. We have full confidence in Freddie to take us forward. The search for a new head coach is under way and we will make a further announcement when that process is complete.”

Luis Enrique opened up about why he fired Robert Moreno from his national team staff, saying Moreno had been disloyal to him.

"I feel obliged to give more explanations than I would like, because this controversy has been generated by someone who worked with me for many years. I had a meeting with Robert Moreno on Sept. 12. It's the only contact I've had with him. We met for 20 to 30 minutes at my house. It was clear he wanted to coach at the Euros. It wasn't a surprise, I saw it coming, I understand -- he's ambitious. But for me it was disloyal," said Enrique.

Enrique temporarily left his position after his daughter was diagnosed with cancer, with Moreno taking over.

Spain president Luis Rubiales said that the arrangement was clear that Enrique could return when he was ready.

When we look at major league baseball and the eye watering deals in the NFL and even e-sports now, this news will no doubt cause ripples across the sporting and private equity worlds," said Bryn Anderson of Brand Finance.
