Atlético-MG withdrew from the hiring of Thiago Neves, who was already in a position to defend the club until the final of the Brazilian Championship, a tournament that ends in February 2021. The negative reactions of the fans have melted the agreement.
The club had everything stitched to have the 35-year-old player. His hiring was a request from Jorge Sampaoli to the football department, led by Alexandre Mattos. However, before the movement of the athletic fans, there was withdrawal from above in the talks.
Thiago Neves would arrive tomorrow (15) in Belo Horizonte to perform medical examinations and sign a contract. The situation was on the right track. However, in the face of negative repercussions, the board informed the athlete’s staff tonight (14) that they would have to undo the deal. In a possible deal, he would be paid for productivity, with a fixed salary below soccer standards.
The deal with the 35-year-old attacker caused a crowd of roosters to revolt. Organized members staged protests in front of the club’s administrative headquarters, in the Lourdes neighborhood, in the south-central region of Belo Horizonte. Given the situation, the club preferred not to keep what it said and abandoned its hiring.
Jorge Sampaoli and the football department are still looking for a midfielder in the ball market. The coach asked to hire a player for the sector, one of the shortcomings of the squad in 2020.
