Juan Carlos Osorio, Paraguay part ways by mutual consent

1 Shares

Juan Carlos Osorio’s stint as the Paraguayan National Team head coach has come to an end.

Both parties announced on Wednesday they parted ways due to mutual consent. Osorio took over La Albirroja in early September and was expected to take charge in upcoming friendlies against Chile and Mexico in March.

“For my own family reasons, unfortunately I can’t continue in the job,” Osorio said. “I’d like to thank you all for your support. It brought me pride to manage, lead and train the national team.”

APF President Robert Harrison stated that the search for a new head coach would begin on Thursday.

Osorio was not given an extension with the Mexican National Team after seeing his side bounced in the Round of 16 in last summer’s FIFA World Cup.

  1. Didn’t Mexico give him honorary citizenship for doing well the first couple of years does it go away once he got sacked from the Mexico coaching position.

    • He coached one game, which he tied. I assume there was a clash at work, or he bumped into corruption he didn’t like, or the wife didn’t like Paraguay. Something weird happened when he goes from in demand to quitting his job after one game in charge.

  2. Good , this guy Osorio believe’s that he’s the world savior in soccer/football : arrogant, dominant and always creating histories only about himself, a complete narcissistic A. H.
