Palmeiras withdraws from hiring Miguel Ángel Ramírez

The coach does not want to leave Independiente del Valle with the season underway and the Palmeiras board wants to define a new coach soon

Palmeiras withdrew from the signing of Miguel Ángel Ramírez on Tuesday night (20). The Spanish was the plan A of the Alviverde board for the team’s coach vacancy.

The decision came after the last meeting in Ecuador between the coach and the Verdão leaders. In the conversation, Ramírez stated that he does not want to finish his cycle at Independiente del Valle while the season progresses and, therefore, Palmeiras has stopped having his services.

As reported by the Lance / Our conference On Monday afternoon (20), the coach had already aligned himself with Verdão under the terms of his then possible new contract. Ramírez had already accepted the seniority, salary and working conditions, who was excited about the opportunity to form a team of great importance on the continent. However, the desire not to abandon his profitable work in the Valley in the middle of the season weighed on him to decide to stay and finish his cycle in the way he considers most successful.

Now, Palmeiras is running out of time to define a plan B and convince him to take over the team, which has lost four consecutive defeats at Brasileirão and is about to enter the knockout phase of the Libertadores and the Copa do Brasil.
