According to Argentine media outlet Ole, Mascherano will continue as the head coach of Argentina’s U23 team, with the Argentine Football Association expressing great satisfaction with his work.
Following their elimination in the quarterfinals of the Olympic men’s football tournament by host nation France, leaving Argentina in the round of eight, calls for Mascherano’s dismissal began to surface.
However, officials from the Argentine Football Association have now told Ole that Mascherano will remain in his post: “It’s very simple, he still has a contract, and we are very satisfied with his work.”
In fact, after taking a few days’ rest, Mascherano will focus on the upcoming event: the South American U20 Championship in Peru next January. This tournament will offer four teams the chance to qualify for the U20 World Cup in Chile.
