The future of the Chilean National Team continues to generate great anticipation, with Manuel Pellegrini as the main candidate to take the reins. The current coach of Real Betis spoke to the media in Spain, denying rumors and acknowledging the dilemma between his commitment to the Spanish club and the possibility of managing La Roja.

Denial of the "speculations"

Pellegrini began by denying the information circulating in the press: "The truth is that many things come out, there are many speculations, figures are also mentioned that are not accurate at all... 90% of the information that comes out is not true in terms of figures, amounts, or time."

The Engineer assured that he is in talks with Betis' management to define his continuity, but his immediate priority is sports performance: "My priority is to beat Girona in this Sunday's match and we'll see how the future unfolds."

The commitment dilemma

The national strategist did not hide the importance of the possibility of managing his country. "Both parts are very important to me, today we are very committed to Betis, we have been very committed to its fans for 5-6 years, and there is also a national team from my country that has to decide many things," he emphasized.

Pellegrini concluded by clarifying his contractual situation: "At the moment we have a contract with Betis and my intention is to fulfill it, if it is extended, it's because both parties want to continue." His final decision seems to depend on the evolution of negotiations in Seville and the position of the Chilean National Team.
