Barça's Luis Enrique up for Manager of the Year

Luis Enrique has been named among the nominees for the best manager of 2015, with the winner revealed at January's gala in Zurich. 

It would have been hard to leave the Barcelona coach off the list considering all he has achieved since taking charge of the Catalan club. 

In his first season in charge, he led Barça to the treble, following that up with the European Super Cup in the summer. 

His calendar year could yet end with a fifth trophy at next month's Club World Cup in Japan. 

However, he was denied one trophy, losing the Spanish Super Cup to Athletic Club over two legs in August. 

Also shortlisted are Bayern Munich's Josep Guardiola and Chile coach Jorge Sampaoli, after leading the Chilean national team to the Copa America in the summer.
