Corinthians agreed this Sunday to hire Vagner Mancini to be their coach until the end of 2021, leaving only the signing of a contract with the coach. Confirmation of proximity was given by President Andrés Sánchez at a press conference after the defeat against Ceará – see more details in the video below.
Mancini is not closed, but it is probably him. Tomorrow we will work to try to hire the new coach. The reason is that Mancini is a good coach, he did a good job, he knows internally and is a guy who follows football. I hope it will strongly change the situation. And make it clear that Regardless of the coach, players must know their responsibility. We have to work together and everyone knows where the corn is. You cannot stay in the situation you are in, ”Andrés said.
Mancini will be the third name to fill the position this season, succeeding Dyego Coelho, who has been acting in Timão’s last eight games. In addition to the U-20 coach, Tiago Nunes, fired after a 2-0 loss to Palmeiras, was the other coach of the Parque São Jorge club. The departure of Nunes, in fact, completed a month on Sunday and Andrés explained the reason for the delay in bringing a new name.
“It certainly took a while because there are two months left and the coaches think a lot about whether I came or not. Unfortunately, it is one of the problems, but we never thought about making the Rabbit effective. He helped us a lot and is the least guilty of all. It’s my fault and that of the athletes. Regardless of the coach, the player has to respond and so do I. We have to work, I will continue as close as possible to the squad and the coach to get out of this situation, “he said.
“Ideally, the technician who arrives should stay as long as possible. We want the next full term to stay, but the result is football. If it doesn’t arrive, it loads and moves. Brazilian soccer takes away the coach instead of the player because it is easier to change one than ten. We spoke with some, but the closest one is Mancini and I want to define that tomorrow “, Andres finished.
Vagner Mancini was in Atlético-GO, the team that faced Corinthians three days ago and drew 0-0 at Neo Química Arena. The Goiás team had three points more than Timão in the same period of matches, with João Victor and Janderson as starters, both from Corinthians.
Mancini had his great job early in his career, leading Paulista de Jundiaí for the 2005 Copa do Brasil title, beating Fluminense in the tournament decision and participating in the 2006 Libertadores da América in an unprecedented way.
In addition to the Brazilian’s 18 points, Mancini also managed to qualify Atlético for the round of 16 of this year’s Brazil Cup, eliminating Fluminense on the way.
However, his relationship with Corinthians was not the best in recent years. In 2017, after removing the black and white invincibility from the Brazilian, an audio of Mancini was leaked celebrating the feat and calling a journalist a “Corinthian asshole.” He apologized for that later.
