José Néstor Pékerman surprised in recent days in Venezuela with some Instagram accounts where he published some images giving himself credit as part of Argentina’s title of the Qatar 2022 World Cup for having directed players like Lionel Messi, Pablo Aimar, Lionel Scaloni , Walter Samuel, among others when these players were taking their first steps in the national team.
With the Under-20 in World Cups and also in the 2006 World Cup with the seniors, José Néstor Pékerman served as the important strategist for that generation of players in Argentina. Now, with the Venezuelan national team, they had to clarify from the Venezuelan Football Federation (FVF) that the Argentine with a past in the Colombian National Team does not have official accounts.
A painful situation for the Venezuelan team and the FVF that have had to deny the accounts on Instagram and Twitter, being the Instagram where the account, @JoseNPekerman, publishes the most content. When Pelé passed away, he also left an image of ‘O Rei’. The Federation’s statement says, “we inform public opinion, the media and our followers that the national coach José Néstor Pékerman does not have profiles on any social network. We clarify that the account @josenpekerman, nor any other that is identified by name of the Vinotinto strategist represent his person or opinion”. All this is due to the images and publications that an account has uploaded on a social network that can also be ignored. The accounts are fake.
