The Spaniard has made a number of changes to his side since taking over from Gerardo Martino this summer, with big names such as Alexis Sanchez and Cesc Fabregas being sold to Arsenal and Chelsea respectively, while others such as Luis Suarez, Ivan Rakitic and Thomas Vermaelen were brought in.
Barca are still keeping an eye on three more players as January approaches, with Enrique keen to keep improving in defence and midfield despite a strong start to the season so far.
Manchester United could be the team to miss out as Barca are chasing many of the same players, with these three understood to be the priorities of the La Liga club for the next transfer window:
1) Juan Cuadrado (Fiorentina)
Firstly, Barcelona want to beat United to the signing of Juan Cuadrado of Fiorentina. The Colombian international is high in demand at the moment after some superb recent displays, and could be an ideal replacement for Dani Alves, who looks set to leave the Nou Camp in the near future.
2) Miranda (Atletico Madrid)
Secondly, Barca also want to rival United for the signing of Atletico Madrid’s rock-solid Brazilian centre-back Miranda, whose fine form played a major role in Diego Simeone’s side’s incredible success in La Liga last season.
3) Koke (Atletico Madrid)
Finally, Barcelona are keen to land long-term target Koke in a double raid on their rivals Atletico Madrid. The young Spanish playmaker could be an ideal replacement for Xavi at the Nou Camp, having established himself as one of the best playmakers in Europe in recent times.
