With Corinthians in the fight for a spot in the next Copa Libertadores, the Corinthians board’s intention is to ignore any pressure and keep Sylvinho in charge of the team in 2022.
At the beginning of the Brazilian Championship, the team came close to the relegation zone, but reacted after the signings of Willian, Roger Guedes, Giuliano and Renato Augusto.
This Wednesday (10), the team visits the leader Atlético-MG, at 7 pm, in Mineirão, for the 31st round of the Nacional. The clash will be broadcast on Premiere.
“We are very satisfied with Sylvinho. He will still bring a lot of joy to the fans,” said president Duilio Monteiro Alves.
Sylvinho’s work has already been criticized by the club’s organized fans. The biggest of them, the Gaviões da Fiel, released a statement asking for the resignation of the coach. The last time happened last month, after a defeat in the derby against São Paulo.
Duilio Monteiro Alves classified the complaints as “exaggerated”.
Sylvinho works with the planning for the next season because the budget will not depend on the classification for Libertadores, according to the president. Most of the reinforcements have already been hired and the biggest movement should be out, to alleviate the payroll.
According to the current classification, Corinthians would enter the preliminary phase of the main South American competition. Only the top four go directly to the group stage. At the moment, the fourth position is occupied by Red Bull Bragantino, with 49 points. The Parque São Jorge club, sixth in the table, has 47 and one game in hand.
Depending on the results of Bragantino and Fortaleza, Corinthians can finish the round in the G4.
“Sylvinho does a good job and we need to understand that it takes time in football. The demand for results is immediate, but we have to follow our conviction. We monitor the day-to-day and the environment. He continues with us. “, completed the president.
To face Atlético-MG, the only Corinthians embezzlement will be defensive midfielder Cantillo, released for the Colombian national team that, on Thursday (11), plays against Brazil, at Neo Química Arena, in the qualifiers for the World Cup.
