Former Barcelona boss Luis Enrique has been appointed Spain's new head coach on a two-year deal, following their World Cup last-16 exit. The president of Spain's football federation Luis Rubiales revealed in a press conference on Monday that the decision to hire Enrique was unanimous, saying the 48-year-old met all of the criteria. Julen Lopetegui was sacked on the eve of the World Cup after agreeing a deal to become Real Madrid's next boss, leaving former sporting director Fernando Hierro to take interim charge of the side. Hierro stepped down from his post as caretaker boss on Sunday after Spain's early elimination from the World Cup - losing to hosts Russia on penalties in the last-16. Fernando Hierro has stepped down as Spain's interim head coach following their early exit from the World Cup. Spain were eliminated in the last 16 on penalties by hosts Russia, last losing at this stage of a World Cup in 2006, which saw Andres Iniesta immediately retired from international football. The 50-year-old Hierro took charge of the team just two days before the tournament after Julen Lopetegui was sacked having agreed a deal to take over as Real Madrid manager without correctly informing the Spanish Football Federation. Enrique, who previously managed Roma and Celta Vigo, won two La Liga titles, three Copa del Rey trophies and one Champions League during his three-year spell in charge of Barcelona. The former Real Madrid and Barcelona midfielder had been a target for Arsenal to replace former manager Arsene Wenger. Earlier on Monday, Jose Francisco Molina, a former goalkeeper for Atletico Madrid and Deportivo La Coruna with nine caps for Spain, was appointed as the federation's sporting director.
