Ever since then, the manager has been working earnestly to put a collapsing team back in shape.
Even while several crisis and distractions threatened his progress, the manager successfully led the nation into the World Cup and established a firm foundation for further success.
Jorge Sampaoli is truly one of the best managers in the world at the moment. In fact, the tactician has proved his ability when it comes to winning important trophies, recently claiming the Europa League and the Copa America.
Just as he led both Sevilla and Chile to glory, the 58-year-old might end up leading the Albiceleste to World Cup triumph this year.

Unsurprisingly, Lionel Messi is his favorite player and is the one true GOAT for him over Cristiano Ronaldo.
