I have nothing against the fans of River, I did not speak of encouragement

After the controversy that was generated by his statements about the “Monumental”, the coach of the Argentine National Team, Lionel Scaloni, assured that “it does not matter to him to be local in any stadium”, while pointing out that the forward Mauro Icardi “has the open door “in the cast of Albiceleste,

“I do not care being a local in any stadium, I spoke of physical closeness due to the heat of the public, not the breath. I have nothing against River fans. As Argentina historically did, we are going to go to the Monumental to play several games of the Copa América and also of the Qualifying rounds, and I know that we are going to feel very local, very comfortable and supported, “said Scaloni.

In dialogue with the Infobae portal, he added: “I think that the National Team has to play in different parts of the country. I do not understand why it should be done only in a stadium.”

As for the Paris Saint-Germain attacker from France, the Argentine technical director stated: “Everyone knows that he was at the beginning of our cycle, there is no doubt that Icardi is a player that we value and that he may be in the National Team” .

“In the last call he had not been because we believed that there were players who were more consolidated with us, but Icardi has the door open for the National Team. We follow him, we look at him, and he is under consideration, there is no doubt. He is an interesting player with an age when it can give us a lot, “he explained.

On the possibility of joining Lionel Messi, Sergio Agüero and Lautaro Martínez in the attack, he said: “It does not go through the complexity of the match, it goes through the way of attacking. With Brazil, in the Copa América, we played with all three. We were fine and we thought we could hurt them. “

And he concluded: “What cannot happen is that all three always have to play. You don’t have to build the team from them because sometimes the game doesn’t require that.”
