Days go by and Reinaldo Rueda’s ‘novel’ with the Chilean soccer team continues to add chapters.

And it is that although the goodbye of the strategist is imminent, and both in Colombia and in Chile it is taken for granted, the situation has not yet been made official by the football authorities of both countries.

In this context, and knowing that Rueda will not return, the ANFP continues to talk with possible candidates who wish to reach the La Roja bench.

In the last hours, according to ESPN, the name of a renowned Italian coach emerged: Luciano Spalletti.

Yes, the former DT of Roma and Inter Milan is one of the candidates who is holding talks with the Chilean leadership. Moreover, according to the transcended, the European trainer would be interested in assuming in La Roja.

Of course, despite the desire of the coach, there are two reasons that keep the negotiation still in ‘minor cloth’: the language barrier and the high salary that the DT asks for.

Although the contact is maintained, the truth is that the ANFP is not totally convinced.

We note that Spalletti has never managed a team and is currently without a team since his departure from Inter in 2019.
