Manuel Pellegriniwho at this time is enjoying a week’s vacation, like the entire staff of the Real Betishas once again expressed 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 would only be the coach of Chile, not of any other team, although maybe I’ll regret it later. I like managing clubs more than national teams, not only having the 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 during an interview with the ESPN television channel.
