The Buenos Aires: River Plate president Jorge Brito has denied speculation that manager Martin Demichelis could lose his job amid a poor run of results.

River was denied the chance to end the 2023 Argentine domestic season on a high when they lost to Rosario Central on penalties in the semifinals of the Primera Division last Saturday, reports Xinhua.

The Buenos Aires giant was also eliminated in the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores, South America's premier club competition.
