A portrait of Gabriel Batistuta of Inter Milan

Batistuta wants to succeed Diego

Gabriel Batistuta has announced that he wants to coach Argentina after Diego Maradona quits the national team.

The former Fiorentina striker, the national team's all-time top scorer with 56 goals in 78 appearances, has been impressed with what Maradona has done since taking the reins.

"Maradona have given the team new motivation," he said. "From what I've seen in the two friendlies Argentina have played under him, I think they're heading the right direction.

"I'd like to coach the national team, but only when Diego is done."
