Let's take a closer look... 

De Reuck meets Enrique 

Rushine De Reuck is well on his way to winning another DStv Premiership title with Mamelodi Sundowns and he got some winning mentality inspiration from high profile coach Luis Enrique. 

The former Maritzburg United player bumped into Enrique at a Sportsmans Warehouse shop and shared it on his Instagram story.

Enrique was in the country for the annual, multi-stage ABSA Cape Epic, a grueling mountain bike (MTB) race that takes place in the Western Cape.

As per SuperSport, the former Barcelona head coach took part in his third ABSA Cape Epic. He previously participated in in 2013 and 2018, and if his social media is anything to go by, Enrique enjoyed his experience at the Epic.

He rode alongside his brother for team MMR Kenta SL and shared updates on Instagram after every stage. 

The passionate cyclist was in the hot seat for the Spanish national team at 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, where they crashed out to Morocco at the Round of 16. 

Lucho, seems to be enjoying his time away from the beautiful game, and if he's still clubless at this point next year, we'll surely see him in Mzansi again for the Cape Epic.

Have your say on De Reuck meeting Enrique and the Spaniard taking part in a MTB race...
