Scaloni releases new biography: From the old boy in Newell to the Argentina national team

Hupu September 18th Argentina national team coach Scaloni posted his new biography on social media. "Scaloni: Official Biography" has now been listed in major bookstores in Argentina. This book, written by Diego Bolinski, brings together 100 little-known stories of the coach and looks back on his journey as an athlete and coach.

The book, which costs about 28,000 Argentine pesos, begins with his youth and tells his career as a player at several European clubs and his almost unexpectedly becoming the head coach of the Blue and White Army. The book is the result of extensive research by Bolinsky, who interviewed more than 40 people, including even having conversations with Scaloni himself in Majorca, Spain, to make the journey public. Respondents include family members, friends, former club teammates, national team players and technical team staff. He even went to Puhato, the former footballer’s hometown, to understand his origins and roots.

It should be noted that Bolinsky is already an experienced writer in Argentina and has many successful works. He wrote authorized biography for Almeida, Galado and others, among which he wrote three different works on Galado.
