Per a report by Ole , Edgardo BAUZA’s departure will be made official shortly. It also states that the Argentina National Team will have a new coach for their next match which will be against Brazil in June.
The AFA president (TAPIA) will apparently be travelling to Europe to speak to Lionel MESSI regarding the team and his suspension.
Former Argentine International and current Estudiantes President Juan Sebastian VERON was a guest on Fox Sport Argentina’s show called La Llave del Gol where he gave his thoughts on the current situation with Argentina’s national team.
When asked about who he feels should replace Edgardo BAUZA, La Brujita said that he prefers his former National Team colleague Mauricio POCHETTINO (current Spurs manager), Eduardo BERIZZO (Celta Vigo) or Diego SIMEONE (Atletico Madrid) to take charge.
He also said that the current squad contains many players that were effected badly by the criticism and the pressure they’re going through now.
It has been a busy day for everyone in the AFA offices with regards to the exit of Edgardo BAUZA as Argentina’s manager and the search of who is going to take the hottest seat in Argentine football.
Well if the AFA feels they already have enough on their plate to deal with, they just got a few millions more!
According to TyC Sport, Jorge PAUTASSO, Adrián CORIA and Raúl MARCOVICH (Tata MARTINO’s coaching staff in the National Team) have just filed a lawsuit against the AFA. It is said that the lawsuit is pertaining unpaid salaries, amounting to over three million dollars!
It should also be noted that the AFA still owes Tata MARTINO over 13 months worth of salary.
The decision to fire Edgardo BAUZA has been taken.
Per reports coming out of Argentina, including one from the very reliable Martin AREVALO of TyC Sports, the decision to fire Edgardo BAUZA has been taken. AREVALO just announced it on TyC that the decision has been made. A second report from La Nacion has stated the same thing, adding that the AFA will try and get Jorge SAMPAOLI as the next coach of the Argentina National Team.
The meeting between Edgardo BAUZA and the AFA which was supposed to take place today has been suspended and will take place on Wednesday.
Mauro ICARDI could get called-up for Argentina in June.
The never ending saga of Mauro ICARDI’s exclusion from the Argentina National Team could come to an end in June. According to Fox Sports Argentina, Inter captain Mauro ICARDI has a chance of getting called-up to the Argentina National Team. His inclusion would come in June when Argentina play Brazil in Australia.
ICARDI has played once for his home country under coach Alejandro SABELLA in 2013 against Uruguay. That match was a World Cup Qualifier, which means that ICARDI has played in an official game for Argentina and cannot play for another country.
