Jadue has been selected as the new president of the Chilean football Association. Jadue said he would ask Marcelo Bielsa to stay on as national team coach. Bielsa resigned after Segovia was elected, citing differences with Segovia.

Jadue had the support of Segovia, which could make it more difficult for Bielsa to remain. The Argentine coach guided Chile to its first World Cup since 1998 and its best finish since 1962. The team lost to Brazil in the round of 16.
