São Paulo football coordinator Muricy Ramalho has worked with both; he also wondered whether Ancelotti would adapt to Brazilian football
Considered one of the greatest Brazilian coaches of all time, Muricy Ramalho has criticized the sacking of Fernando Diniz from the Brazilian team. On the other hand, the 68-year-old from Sao Paulo appreciated CBF’s choice to sign Dorival Júnior.
It is worth remembering, in fact, that Muricy Ramalho worked with both coaches in St. Paul. Now retired from his position, since January 2021 he has held the role of football coordinator at Tricolor. At the time the coach was Fernando Diniz, who stayed for a few more weeks. Dorival Júnior, in turn, had been at São Paulo since April last year, from where he left to join the Seleção, last Wednesday (10).
Muricy Ramalho initially criticized CBF for sacking Fernando Diniz, who spent just six games in charge and was still treated as “interim”. It is worth mentioning that the dream consumer of the Brazilian Confederation was the Italian Carlo Ancelotti. The former coach and current manager also underlined that this is not good for the club’s image.
“I thought that everything that was done regarding the interim, Ancelotti and Fernando Diniz, for me, did not exist. Given the size of Brazil, we cannot have an interim coach. Diniz should continue, be the coach, “Not wait for Ancelotti. I think this dismissal (with Diniz) was very damaging for the image of the Seleção. It’s bad that you don’t have a coach. We had a coach, who was Diniz, I think he also thought of “Continue after Ancelotti’s refusal. But they also removed Diniz, then they brought in Dorival, who has a slightly different profile. This whole situation, in my opinion, is not she is beautiful”, commented Muricy Ramalho in an interview with “Domingol com Benja” this Sunday (14), on CNN.
Muricy Ramalho, in fact, analyzed the name of Carlo Ancelotti. The Italian, it is worth mentioning, had a contract with Real Madrid until the middle of this year. However, he renewed with the Spaniard, thus frustrating the plans of the CBF and the Brazilian team once and for all.
Would Ancelotti be a good name?
“Great respect for Ancelotti, who knows European football like no one else, but ours is complicated, I think it’s difficult. If he came here and saw this mess, in my opinion he wouldn’t want to stay even 5 minutes”, – added Muricy.
Interestingly, Ramalho almost commanded the Brazilian team. In 2010, after Brazil lost the South African Cup, he was invited by CBF, but he refused to stay at Fluminense. At the end of that season, it is worth remembering, he ended up becoming Brazilian champion with the Brazilian tricolor.
Finally, Muricy stressed that Dorival Júnior, despite everything, was a good name chosen by the CBF and also revealed that he had made a special request to the coach of the Brazilian team.
“He is a guy who manages things well, the environment, he arrived in Sao Paulo at a very complicated time compared to this (environment), he is a manager, he treats his employees well, he has attracted everyone’s attention, the our team has grown with That’s I think the CBF will do a great job… I told Dorival that a technical director is missing, a boy is missing in CBF football, always deciding with the president is not the right thing to do. Must have someone In this environment, the president is the one who always has the last word, everywhere. These are things that CBF will have to improve. It’s not good, even with Dorival’s departure. He knows he will We have many difficulties, let’s talk a lot,” he concluded.
