technician Carlos De los Cobos will not continue with the national team. After a series of poor results and problems within the team, the Mexican strategist reached an agreement with the Salvadoran Football Federation in the economic part and left El Salvador in an insecure position in the ranking heading to Qatar 2021.
After his dismissal, they remain in the air. When he consulted the FESFUT president about who will hold the position of coach, he did not want to give a name, the replacement being still in evaluation.

One of the possible substitutes based on the work of the last months could be the coach Hugo Pérez, who took over the pre-Olympic team and left good feelings for his work with the young people. But if so, the former player would leave a gap in the work of youth teams, the position for which he would have been hired and whose contract ended after the tournament in Guadalajara.
In addition to the coaching staff that would accompany the next coach, which is also a mystery, other questions accompany FESFUT. The team will be active until June and until then a new call in blue and white will be announced, but the names of Eriq Zavaleta (Toronto FC), Joshua Pérez (Ibiza) and Enrico Dueñas (Vitesse) have already been confirmed. players who will lead the next blue list.
In addition, it is not known the economic amount with which the agreement was concluded with Carlos De los Cobos, whose contract expired if the selection was left out of the tie.
The remaining questions remain. In the coming weeks, hours or days, all these questions will be answered.
