Forlan agrees to become interim Uruguay head coach

Ex-Leeds United boss Bielsa became Uruguay boss in May 2023 but they won 15 of his 39 games in charge and, after their disappointing early exit from the World Cup, the 70-year-old Argentine said his tenure "left nothing behind".

Forlan scored 36 goals in 112 games for Uruguay, and won the Golden Ball as they reached the semi-finals at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Forlan succeeds Marcelo Bielsa, who stepped down after Uruguay failed to qualify from the group stage at the World Cup.
