President of the Uruguayan Football Association Ignacio Alonso has reiterated his intention to maintain Diego Alonso as head coach of the Uruguay team
He revealed this in an interview on Radio Oriental, when asked about Diego Alonso’s contract.
“the agreement remains as from day one. We talked a year ago and we’ve kept talking. The link ended and you have to sit down to talks in a few days when the anger passes,”
“You have to talk between the parties and we will see what the aspiration of each one is,” he said and was forceful: “ours is that he continue in office, we said it to covered letters before the World Cup,”
“We raised it with Diego and we will have to have a definition in the next few days,”
On Uruguay’s early exit from the tournament, Ignacio Alonso said: “it is a tremendous pain because we narrowly missed the classification, we could have arrived, but it did not happen. Korea’s goal came late on and there we had a chance to convert the third. It was a negative and painful outcome,”
