Mano explains the absence of Ignacio, who has not yet made his debut with Fluminense

The coach is cautious in his use of defenders and explains that he prefers not to expose a newly arrived player

Fluminense has responded in the Brazilian championship since the arrival of coach Mano Menezes and has achieved its fourth consecutive victory in the competition. Among the reinforcements, Thiago Silva and Kevin Serna are among the starters, while Nonato has frequently come on. Another name, however, has not yet debuted in the tricolor jersey: defender Ignácio.

It is worth noting that the Rio club will pay around 11.9 million reals for the Brazilian defender, formerly of Sporting Cristal, who comes from Peru. In a press conference, the commander explained that he prefers not to expose a player who has just arrived and that the right time for his debut will come.

“People, when we announce a purchase, are very excited, in general they are excited, and it’s nice that it is like that. It’s thanks to the players who arrive, it means that we are bringing quality players into our group. , but we need the conditions for an incoming hiring”, he said

“And I’m very careful not to expose the player who arrives, because if you do that, creating expectations about a purchase at the wrong time and it doesn’t go well, it’s the opposite of what’s happening with Serna. It went well, we’re keeping him, it’s going well. So we’ll hold back a bit, precisely because of what we have in relation to what we’re doing we still don’t have a parameter for Ignacio”, he concluded.

In the duel with Bahia, at the Maracanã, the coach even replaced Thiago Santos, who was not feeling well. However, for those who expected Ignácio’s debut, Antônio Carlos took the field. On Wednesday, Fluminense will face Juventude, at 21:30 (Brasilia time), also at the Maracanã, in the second leg of the Copa do Brasil round of 16.
