Marcelo Gallardo

Linked to us again.

There's no doubt he's a top class manager and the best in South America, but no European experience is going to be a tough one.

Never won the Argentine league.

But 1 time Sudamericana winner. 2 time Libertadores winner. 3 time Argentina Cup winner.

Seems like a Cup manager.

Lol, had tons of offers to prove himself in Europe but accepted Saudis money.

The later part is understandable, coaches going for money is a bit normal and many coaches bounced from middle east to Europe like our own coach, Dalic. Their career isn't short like footballers and generally they rarely get good endorsement deals.
First part is a mystery though, plenty of good offers in Europe that he declined

Managers are not affected by league status. Gallardo is still on the rise, he is yet to debut in Europe.

For example Rudi Garcia who managed Al Nassr, this summer was appointed by Napoli. He's still relevant, although his fortunes have declined like Mourinho's.
