The AFA awaits Scaloni’s decision and points to November
Lionel Scaloni’s continuity at the helm of the Argentina national team has still not been finalized, although the AFA are confident an answer will arrive in November. Negotiations are ongoing while the steps toward the cycle mapped out on the road to the 2030 World Cup are being sorted out.
AFA is waiting for a key decision on the future of Lionel Scaloni. According to information confirmed in the last few hours, the coach’s continuity in charge of the Argentina national team is still not sealed, although everything indicates that the answer could come in November.
The news comes amid negotiations that remain open and a stage in which the leadership is looking to resolve how the project for what comes next will be shaped. The prevailing signal, according to the report, is that there would be good news to begin the next phase of the cycle that started in 2018, with an eye also on the road to the World Cup 2030.
A cycle that still lacks a formal ending
The uncertainty does not imply a rupture, but it does put on hold a confirmation that those around the national team are following closely. Scaloni’s continuity, which was the starting point of a highly successful era, remains one of the central topics on the AFA’s agenda.
Against that backdrop, negotiations remain active and the expectation is that a decision will not be delayed much beyond the next few months. The timeframe currently on the table is November, according to the version that emerged in the last few hours.
What is being evaluated in the technical setup
Beyond the main decision on the coach, the process also includes other steps linked to the makeup of the coaching staff. The information released mentions that work is also being done on how that group will be assembled, an important point for medium-term planning.
For now, there have been no official announcements or public confirmations about concrete changes. The new development is that talks between the parties remain open and the goal is to manage the transition without upheaval, at a stage in which the national team is already thinking about the near future.
- Scaloni’s continuity: the decision has still not been formalized.
- Negotiations ongoing: the AFA continues talking to close the matter.
- Resolution window: the decision could come in November.
- Future project: the horizon includes preparation for the World Cup 2030.
- Coaching staff: the steps for its makeup are also being studied.
So the expectation is centered on a resolution that will clear the picture before the end of the year. Meanwhile, the AFA remains cautious and awaits an answer that, according to the scenario now being described, could end up bringing calm for the stretch ahead.
