Real Madrid could choose Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni as their next coach.
The Spanish team has examined the profile of the Argentine coach and has started preliminary negotiations, according to Doble Amarilla. Scaloni, who just won the FIFA World Cup, is at the top of his game. He notably beat Brazil away in the CONMBEOL World Cup qualifiers. The Argentine, however, sent mixed signals after the match about his future with the team, leading Madrid to consider him.
It is well known that the 45-year-old coach is very friendly with Messi, who is nine years younger than his mentor. He took charge of Argentina after the 2018 World Cup – where the Albiceleste were eliminated in the round of 16 – and, in his first appearance on the big stage, he took the team to the roof of the world . However, if Scaloni leaves, will Messi join him? At 36, Messi’s time on the international stage may be coming to an end.
Scaloni made his debut for Argentina in 2003 and appeared in the 2006 World Cup with his country. He was selected to everyone’s surprise in place of Javier Zanetti, who also played as a right back.
