Manuel Pellegriniwho at this time is enjoying a week’s vacation, as is the entire staff of Real Betishas reiterated his desire to coach his country’s national team, although the Chilean still has a contract with the green and white club until June 2026.
“I will only coach Chile, not another team, although I might regret it in the end. I prefer managing clubs to national teams, not just having players for a week. I would have to meet with a leadership party to put together a development program for Chilean soccer, not go and put my head for a resume,” he commented in an interview on the ESPN television channel.
Pellegrini, 71, is the oldest coach to direct a match in the First Division Espanyol, he is in his fifth season at Real Betis and before retiring he wants to lead his team – now coached by Ricardo Gareca – to a World Cup: “We have to make a path with people with experience and ability. “I want to end my career directing Chile in a World Cup,” explained the ‘Engineer’.
The next World Cup will be held in the United States, Mexico and Canada in 2026while the next one, in 20230, will take place in Spain, Portugal and Morocco, with matches also in Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay.
