Celta have confirmed Luis Enrique's No.2 will take over at Balaidos

Unzue previously spent one season in Vigo working alongside Lucho

Celta Vigo have confirmed that Juan Carlos Unzue will be the club's coach for the next two seasons. Until now Luis Enrique's No.2, Unzue will take on a new challenge at Balaidos. 

He will be joined on the adventure by Luis Enrique's staff, with Celta explaining: "With Unzue, Robert Moreno (assistant manager), Rafel Pol (fitness coach) and Joaquin Valdes (phycologist) will also return to the club." 

All four 'return' because they spent the 2013/14 season in Vigo working with Luis Enrique. They then left the club when the Asturian coach was appointed as the Barcelona boss in 2015. 

Unzue had been sounded out for the Barcelona job after Luis Enrique announced his departure in February. It will not be, though, and he will instead replace Eduardo Berizzo, who was unable to agree a new deal with Celta.
