Sampaoli unsure of Sevilla future after Monchi's departure

The Argentine denied contact with his home nation over replacing Edgardo Bauza, but admitted he was not sure over continuing in Andalucia

Jorge Sampaoli has again refused to commit his long-term future to Sevilla following the departure of the club's distinguished sporting director Monchi.

Former goalkeeper Monchi announced he is leaving Sevilla after 16 years at the club, but denied that a move to Serie A to link up with Roma has been agreed.

Sampaoli is reportedly a leading contender to succeed Luis Enrique at Barcelona, while he has also been linked with Argentina as Edgardo Bauza's side are struggling in World Cup qualifying.
