The words of the national team’s coach: “We never interfere in each player’s current football affairs, on decisions to change teams or to stay.”

Lionel Scaloni, the Argentina coach, spoke at a press conference on the eve of the match with Paraguay. Among the topics, naturally, also the future of Paredes, who seems to be far from Rome given the attention of Boca Juniors. These are the coach’s words: “I have not discussed Paredes’ current situation. We began our training yesterday, today was the most crucial session, and our focus is directed more towards preparing for the match. “We never interfere with the current football affairs of every player, on decisions to change teams or to stay. We evaluate the present and it’s true that he is not receiving the minutes he would want.”
