There's a new man in charge of the Argentina men's national team. The Argentina soccer federation formally introduced Jorge Sampaoli on Thursday as the team's new coach, replacing Edgardo Bauza who was let go in April after a poor run of results.
A passionate, 57-year-old Argentine, Sampaoli was most recently the coach of Sevilla, leaving the club earlier this month after the Spanish club and the national team reached an agreement to let him out of his contract. He has also coached Chile and club Universidad de Chile, having tremendous success at both, including guiding the nation to its first ever Copa America title in 2015, with a penalty-kick shootout win over his birth country.
