Corinthians know they will have to reformulate their squad for next season. Furthermore, there are nine players with contracts close to expiring. However, Mano Menezes is not currently thinking about renewals and departures. The coach wants to focus on the last part of the season and try to close the Brasileirão with a championship worthy of the club.
“We haven’t discussed any issues about it. I didn’t ask for interruptions, continuity, I didn’t ask for anything to negotiate with a player. Also this is not the time to do it. Corinthians is in the Brazilian Championship and has a difficult ending. Here’s what we have to deal with it right now: get the best possible placing in the league,” the commander said in an interview with the club’s official website.
“There’s no point in thinking ahead about something where you don’t even know what will happen. Let’s think about today, let’s do it well, and I’m absolutely certain that well done today will influence the decisions we make in the future. The rest is speculation,” he added.
Corinthians moment
Therefore, Mano Menezes will discuss such contractual situations after the Brasileirão. He arrived at the club in recent weeks to start a new job and find direction for the team. Corinthians are in a delicate situation this season and are going four matches without winning in the Brasileirão.
Although the squad reformulation situation is not a priority at the moment, it is expected that some big names will leave the club in 2024. After all, Bruno Méndez, Gil, Fábio Santos, Maycon (on loan), Cantillo, Paulinho, Giuliano, Renato Augusto and Ruan Oliveira their contract is expiring.
Corinthians takes the field next Thursday (19th), at 9.30pm, at the Maracanã, for the Brasileirão. Timão is in 14th place in the championship, with 31 points.
