In the Carioca Championship, he was eliminated in the semifinals of the Rio Cup (after the return from strike, which always tried to get ahead). After guaranteeing the qualification for the round of 16 of the Brazil Cup, he leaves the team in 19th place in the Brazilian Championship, with 11 points in 12 games.

– Dear Chairman and members of the Committee, I am here to inform you that it is time to make changes, without any type of restrictions. So much so that yesterday, to make things easier, I told the players that it is. It is one thing to be persistent and another stubborn. When the signs are negative, he is stubborn. There is no room to return to the attitude already adopted. Seek solutions immediately. Thank you. Greetings to the families – Autuori explained.
Consequently, Botafogo can only thank Autuori – a professional of great identification and history – for all the respect and gratitude to the Club in accepting the challenge in a period of great economic difficulties and in the midst of a pandemic. The technical assistant Renê Weber also leaves office, to whom we reiterate our gratitude for all the work carried out during this period.
