Former Inter Milan:  Former Inter Milan and Uruguay attacker Alvaro Recoba has been appointed head coach of Nacional on a deal that runs until the end of 2024.

The 47-year-old replaces Alvaro Gutierrez, who was sacked following a 2-0 defeat to Boston River in Uruguay's Primera Division on Thursday, Xinhua reports.

"It's my goal to make the players grow day by day," Recoba told a press conference on Saturday. "I can't think of any other place I'd rather be and I'm motivated to start working."
