The look of relief on the president’s face Augusto Melo It was that of someone who lifted a ‘mountain’ off his shoulders with Corinthians’ excellent end to the season, who climbed out of the relegation zone and secured a place in the preliminary phase of the Copa Libertadores. The president has had a year of intense pressure on and off the field, with calls for impeachment. With a smile on his face, he promised a totally different 2025.
“The 2025 season will be a totally different year. We will fight for titles. Not even the most fanatical Corinthians fan believed that we would end the year on a high. We have a promising future after all the difficulties we have gone through. Our priority was to get out from this discomfort zone and we managed to go much further. From now on Corinthians will be much stronger in 2025,” he told TV Corinthians.
The president analyzed the season and admitted that he had made some mistakes. “Maybe we lacked a bit of experience, trust in people who had the capabilities. But we are all human and we are subject to making mistakes, thank God we learned a lot. It was a difficult window because the situation in which we found ourselves The club was complicated, we didn’t imagine that we would have so many problems, we tried to buy at least in installments, we had difficulties because we had no credibility”, he said.

Finally, he sent a message to the Corinthians fans. “A fan like Corinthians doesn’t exist, they have no equal. I’ve never seen anything like it. If it weren’t for them maybe we wouldn’t be here. Thank you for everything, this shows what Corinthians is. They haven’t stopped believing in us .”
