Uruguay : Diego Forlán nommé sélectionneur de la Celeste
Uruguay opens a new chapter in its history by entrusting the reins of its national football team to Diego Forlán. The former Celeste star was officially appointed manager this Thursday, succeeding Marcelo Bielsa, whose departure was expected after the team's premature elimination in the group stage of the 2026 World Cup.
At 47, the former iconic striker, voted best player of the 2010 World Cup, is preparing to take on the biggest challenge of his young coaching career.
A true legend of Uruguayan football, Forlán will have the mission of giving new impetus to a team in search of renewal after a very disappointing World Cup.
The Uruguayan Football Federation also confirmed that Diego Forlán will retain the leadership of the under-20 national team, a dual role that demonstrates the confidence placed in him to build the future of national football.
A former player for Manchester United, Villarreal, Atlético de Madrid, and Inter Milan, Forlán remains one of the greatest figures in the history of the Celeste. His experience, leadership, and knowledge of Uruguayan football will now be put to use for a national team that aspires to return to the top of the international stage.
