Without much time to waste, the Corinthians acted quickly in the market and hired the technician Antonio Oliveira. Thus, the Portuguese decided to leave the Cuiabá, where he did a good job, to take over the São Paulo team. According to the GE website, Timão will have to pay a fine of R$1.1 million to remove the commander from Dourado. However, the board accepted the condition and agreed to the deal.

It is worth noting that the official registration of Antonio Oliveira can only be done after the Corinthians bear the termination fine of Mano Menezes. In accordance with the regulations of the Paulistão, a new technician can only be hired after all bureaucratic procedures have been agreed with the predecessor. Thus, Timão races against time to define the issues.

CORINTHIANS FIRED BRO MENEZES!

Coming from four consecutive defeats, the Corinthians made a very important decision and fired Mano Menezes. Upset by the poor sequence of results, the board led by Augusto Melo decided to move and promote changes in the technical committee. Thus, the coach was informed that he would not remain and had his contract terminated.

The highlight is the speech of Augusto Melo last Sunday (4). Shortly after the defeat to Novorizontinothe president of Timão guaranteed that Mano Menezes he would stay in the position and have better options in the squad. However, hours later, the manager changed his mind and communicated his resignation to the professional. It is worth mentioning that the Corinthians will have to pay all of Mano’s salaries until the end of this year.

“Nobody is worried about a fine, we are worried about work. Mano is the coach of Corinthians until 2025, contract signed. I will be structuring him to have a better working condition. I have my responsibility as president. If he is asking for some pieces to be able to fit, my obligation is to work on it“, he said Augusto Melo the day before dismissal.
