Jorge Sampaoli has attracted a host of interested nations after leaving Argentina, but he is determined to hold out for a job with the Mexican national team.
The former Chile and Sevilla boss was sacked by the Argentine FA after a World Cup campaign rocked by rumours of dressing room revolts and which eventually ended in last-16 defeat.
Sampaoli lasted just over 12 months in the post, after being dubbed the "best coach in the world" by AFA president Claudio Tapia in 2017.
Goal understands, however, that the 58-year-old Casilda native is unlikely to stay unemployed for long.
