This is Jorge Sampaoli. The coach was in charge of the Argentine team in the previous World Cup and could barely reach the round of 16, where he was eliminated by France. The manager suffered along the way, drawing against Iceland and losing to Croatia in their group stage start. An agonizing victory against Nigeria allowed them to advance to the next round.

After his failure, he was left out of office in the Albiceleste. Months later it was revealed that during the World Cup he had an argument with Lionel Messi. Marcio Zanardi, Sampaoli's former collaborator in Santos, mentioned to ESPN: 'In a conversation I asked him what happened in the World Cup. The assistant told me: 'He fought our best player, and that's why we lost.' Sampaoli also told me: 'I fought with Messi'.

What does Jorge Sampaoli currently do?

In mid-2022, he said goodbye to Olympique de Marseille after qualifying it for the Champions League. From that moment he can't find a job. He sounded to lead the Brazilian National Team, Santos and Atlético Mineiro. In addition, he was promoted to return to Sevilla, but so far he has not found a new destination for his career.
