Buenos Aires: Jorge Sampaoli has agreed to leave Sevilla to coach Argentina's national team.

The position was made vacant by the sacking of Edgardo Bauza earlier this month amid a poor run of results, reports Xinhua news agency.

According to the AS newspaper, Sampaoli will be officially announced as Argentina's coach when the European season ends in late May. Argentina are currently fifth in the 10-team South America zone World Cup qualifying standings with four games remaining.
