In a talk with Radio Miter, Scola also spoke of the future: “I don’t see myself in politics, I don’t like it, it doesn’t attract me. Nor do I want to be a technician, I think it would not be good and also I would not like. I fantasize about being able to do something that has nothing to do with basketball, but if he dedicated me to basketball, I think it could be from the manager’s position ”.
