Lionel Scaloni has entered the hearts of Argentina fans in a short time, but he may be without him in the near future.
Namely, the coach of the Gauchos made an interesting statement after the victory against Brazil.
“Things have accumulated that I have to think about. These players have given me a lot. They gave a lot to the entire coaching staff. To the entire state and people. Now I have to think ‘what next’. This is not a farewell or anything like that, but I have to think with a cool head. The bar has been raised very high and it is difficult to keep winning. I told the players, and I will tell the president as well, that this national team needs a coach who has the maximum possible energy,” Scaloni said.
And then the news appeared that he could leave the helm of the Argentina national team. Scaloni’s specific period is not on the same wavelength with the president of the association Tapia, and it all started after winning the World Cup, when the two sides should have sat down and agreed on the extension of cooperation.
It dragged on, and in the end a common language was found. However, during that time, FS Argentina did not pay the bonuses for winning the World Cup to the players and coaching staff. First, information appeared that they were not satisfied with the distribution of premiums, so the union delayed the payment.
Dissatisfaction with Scaloni grew due to the leaking of information to the media, such as the roster and injured players. However, in the end, it could not do without politics and it came to a climax.
Recently, elections for the president of the country were held in Argentina, and Tapia is friends with one of the two candidates, who wanted to use the Scalonia national team members in his campaign, which they categorically refused.
There is also a sports motive, because the 45-year-old expert has won everything with the Gauchos and is ready for the next step, which could be Europe. We will see what will be the epilogue of the whole situation, because of which the whole nation is probably worried…
