Maradona keeps people guessing about his future

Diego Maradona isn't saying whether he'll stay on as Argentina's national team coach.

Maradona was to meet early this week with Argentine Football Association president Julio Grondona, whose office said last week it would offer the coach a four-year extension through the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

However, Maradona planned to travel to Venezuela at the invitation of President Hugo Chavez to give a series of soccer clinics.

Maradona has not talked publicly about his plans since Argentina was knocked out of the World Cup by Germany with a 4-0 quarterfinal loss.

Argentina is scheduled to play an Aug. 11 exhibition at Ireland.
