“It is a question for him. I don't have to answer. You already know what I think. I want him to be there, but he is the one who decides. He has earned the right to be able to decide with peace of mind. We are in no hurry. Let's hope he says yes,” Scaloni told reporters during his pre-match press conference. The manager also touched upon his own future, noting that while contract talks are ongoing, they are not his primary focus.
