Uruguay coach Oscar Tabarez said that he is not sure whether he will stay as coach after his team lost 3-2 to the Netherlands in the World Cup semifinal on Tuesday.
The veteran coach said he still had issues to sort out with the Uruguay federation before the two sides agree on whether he should stay on.
"I have avoided this question. It doesn't depend on me," Tabarez said after the defeat at Green Point Stadium sent the Dutch through to the final.
"I cannot say I am a candidate as it's not up to me. We have to wait for the next step to see if certain conditions have to be fulfilled. I have seen ways we can improve and everything depends on that," he said.
The 63-year-old Tabarez is back in his second spell with the national team, 20 years after he guided them at the 1990 World Cup in Italy.
