The name of former Barcelona star Javier Mascarano is being heard to replace Lionel Scaloni, the coach who led Argentina to the World Cup title.
This former player from Argentina is currently the coach of the youth team. Mascarano played eight seasons with Barça and made 334 appearances for the club. He took part in the club’s two Champions Leagues, five La Liga titles and five Spanish Super Cup titles. In the 2014-15 season, the player played a crucial role in the club’s title victory. Mascarano is also the second most capped player for the Argentine national team. The player wore the national shirt in 147 games.
Superstar Lionel Messi has played the most games. Mascarano said that if all goes well, Scaloni will also be the coach of the Argentine team at the Paris Olympics. The player added that Scaloni should continue until the 2026 World Cup. When asked if he would replace Scaloni, Mascarano replied that he was not sure.
I don’t know if I’m the only one. He added that the objective at the moment is to secure the qualification of the under 23 team for the Olympic Games and to train the youth team. Mascarano will take over the job of coach of Argentina’s youth team in January 2022. The success rate is 62 percent. In the Lokup FIFA U-20 group matches, the team won all their matches but lost to Nigeria in the final.
