Jorge Sampaoli He has found a new team after Flamengo decided to do without the coach a little over a year ago. Now he will have a new opportunity in Ligue 1 with Rennes. A club in which he has shown a lot of interest since he has recognized that he has very good memories of the French league. «The French championship continues to improve and, furthermore, The best in the world come from France and Brazil. “There is raw material,” he stressed in his presentation.
The Argentine coach has a long career after passing through some clubs such as Sevilla FC, Flamengo, Marseilles and even the Argentina national team. However, it has not yet managed to take hold in any of them because the results have not been as expected. In the 27 years that he has been dedicated to training in different football clubs, On only one occasion has he been at the helm for more than two years. It was precisely during his time as Chile’s coach, which was between 2012 and 2016. In the 44 games he coached the Chilean team, he achieved 28 wins, 7 draws and 9 losses. Furthermore, it was during this period where he achieved his best numbers as a coach.
In his presentation, the media did not hesitate to question him about this matter. However, Sampaoli was not able to recognize that at times his decisions could have been wrong, but instead decided to blame the teams he had passed through. «My level of demand sometimes becomes too high compared to the demands of the clubs in which I have worked.. But I realize that these ambitions are excessive and perhaps unattainable, and this is something I must change. I have to improve this to stay here in Rennes longer,” he apologized.
The coach has signed a season and a half, so he will initially be linked to Rennes until end of June 2026. The main objective of this season is to remain in the First Division. Currently, the French team is in thirteenth place, just two points away from relegation. Sampaoli’s new team has 23 games left to reverse this situation.
