BUENOS AIRES (ARGENTINA) (ITALPRESS) – “Beyond being crucial for Argentina, he is a friend of mine, and I want the best for him; if he were to decide to leave, I would accept it. It would be a huge loss for us, but he must feel free to make whatever decision he chooses, knowing that the door will always be open for him should he ever return.” Argentina head coach Lionel Scaloni is discussing the future of Walter Samuel, a member of his coaching staff and a long-time personal friend.

According to rumors circulating in Italy and South America, “The Wall”—the former Inter defender—could return to the ‘Nerazzurri’ to join Chivu’s staff; Chivu would be delighted to have his input on improving the team’s defensive play. Indeed, Scaloni himself revealed that Inter has been tracking the former defender for some time: “Samuel has already shown us what the national team means to him; he received an offer from Inter to work with Chivu but decided to stay with us until the World Cup, proving what kind of person he is,” said the ‘Albiceleste’ coach.
