THE Saints lost the action against the coach Jorge Sampaoli, who led the club in the 2019 season. El Pez had to pay R $ 4.4 million to the Argentine coach, according to Justia’s decision, who evaluated whether or not he should pay a fine for the termination of his contract last year, giving reason to the current Atlantic commander.

Santos’ board of directors alleged that Sampaoli had resigned on December 9, forcing him to pay a fine. The technician, however, argued that his departure occurred only on the 11th, when the fine for dismissal no longer existed. And that argument was accepted by the court.

The decision was made by judge Wildner Izzi Pancheri, of the Santos Labor Court 5, and the São Paulo club had to pay the entire amount owed to the Argentine coach. They are about R $ 420 thousand related to vacations, R $ 320 thousand for the 13th salary, R $ 100 thousand for the days worked in December and R $ 8 thousand for FGTS. In addition, he is entitled to a R $ 3.5 million prize for the classification of the Copa Libertadores team.

In 2019, under the command of Sampaoli, Santos was the Brazilian runner-up. In addition, they fell in the first phase of the South American Championship, in the semifinals of the Paulista Championship and in the quarterfinals of the Brazil Cup.

Sampaoli met Santos again on September 9, when the team beat Atlético 3-1 for the Brazilian Championship. The team from Belo Horizonte, however, leader of the tournament, with seven of advantage for the group of São Paulo, the sixth place.
