Buenos Aires: Jorge Sampaoli has agreed to leave Sevilla to coach Argentina’s national football team. The position was made vacant by the sacking of Edgardo Bauza earlier this month amid a poor run of results, reported Xinhua. According to the AS newspaper, Sampaoli will be officially announced as Argentina’s coach when the European season ends in late May. Sampaoli, who guided Chile to victory at the 2015 Copa America, was appointed the Sevilla boss in June. The Spanish club’s president Pepe Castro has been told of the 57-year-old’s decision to leave, according to the newspaper. “I know that there is interest. I know that it is said that I am the chosen (one), but they will have to wait for the times that correspond to not harm anyone. Doing it now would harm Sevilla,” Sampaoli said.
