Uruguay are preparing to turn to one of their greatest-ever icons to lead the national team following a disastrous 2026 World Cup campaign. Former Manchester United forward Diego Forlan is closing in on a deal to take charge of the Celeste setup after the departure of Marcelo Bielsa.

Marcelo Bielsa has delivered a characteristically intense and philosophical farewell to the Uruguay national team following their shock group-stage exit from the World Cup. The Argentine tactician used a marathon 100-minute press conference to reflect on a "very painful" exit, arriving armed with a dossier of data to defend his side's tactical output.
