Scaloni also praised the quality of play in MLS.
“We are not interested in their leagues; we care about his performance. He’s playing at a very good level. When he comes in, he shows a good level,” Scaloni said through a translator.
Still, the World Cup-winning manager made clear that De Paul cannot lean on past success and has to maintain his level for a full 90 minutes.
“He knows he can’t relax,” Scaloni said. “During the hydration break, I told him he can’t relax. He’s decisive when he doesn’t relax. He changed the game afterward.”
