Former Argentine international Gabriel Heinze looks certain to be named the next Atlanta United head coach in the next few days.
So reports respected Argentine journalist Cesar Luis Merlo, the man who broke news of Pity Martinez’s move to Al-Nasr a few months ago, in collaboration with Hugo Balassone.
Nothing has yet been finalized, however the announcement is expected imminently.
Heinze is a no-nonsense coach, as he was a player who won national championships in England, France, Spain and in his native Argentina.
The 72 times capped Olimpic gold medal winner has played under celebrated coaches such as Ferguson, Deschamps and Bielsa, of whom, like the most successful coach in Five Stripes history Tata Martino, he is deemed a disciple.
