He trained Messi and lost his job, now he is close to returning to Spain

Since he resigned from his position as coach at Marseille in France, Jorge Sampaoli had disappeared from the map. Last July and due to differences with the leadership, the DT decided to end a cycle that had lasted two seasons. After that, he decided to pack his bags and settle in Brazil, which sparked several rumors.

Despite the fact that there were always rumors linking him to a team from Europe, or even one from Argentina, the reality is that Jorge Sampaoli took a break from training, which seems to be coming to an end.

According to the site O' Globo, which would later be replicated by hundreds more, the coach was coveted by Santos of that country and the version that the Brazilian team would offer him once his participation in the World Cup was completed, since Tite long ago revealed that he will not continue beyond that.

However, none of this is going to happen because the native of Casilda has already defined his new place in the world. According to the Spanish newspaper As, Sevilla and the Argentine would have reached an agreement for him to take charge of the club. The current status of the team is bad with the leadership of Jürgen Lopetegui and this would facilitate his second stage in the Andalusian institution.

His first cycle in Sevilla and subsequent departure

The coach did a good job and managed to finish fourth with 72 points in the local championship. After his irregular stint with the Argentine National Team, in which he said goodbye in the round of 16 when he fell to France 4-3, the coach went through Santos from Brazil in December of that year, Atlético de Mineiro in 2019 and Olympique Marseille of Ligue 1 in 2021.
