With 152 matches in charge of Leão, Vojvoda has 79 wins, 33 draws and 40 losses, with a success rate of 59.2%. In addition to the titles, another great achievement of the period was to qualify the club for two consecutive editions of Libertadores: in 2022 and 2023. Just in the debut year, the team reached the round of 16.
For the president of Fortaleza, Marcelo Paz, Vojvoda was diagnosed from the beginning as a coach with the desired profile, based on offensiveness in addition to the previous successful work in teams with a smaller budget. Celebrating the captain’s achievement, Paz praises both the personal and professional sides of the Argentine:
“That amount of matches is an expressive sign, but the main thing is the history he has built within the institution and the identification he has had with the club. We also cannot but underline the great human being he is “. , scored Paz.
With a contract renewed at the end of 2022, Vojvoda has a link with Fortaleza until the end of 2024 and has even rejected recent attacks from the big clubs in Brazilian football.
