“I follow the Zamalek news well, and I know that the fans always praise me, and this is definitely something that makes me happy and gives me confidence in my abilities as a technical director.”
“I went to Zamalek and he had a contract with Al-Ahly and I was the reason for breaking him when he was the team’s coach. We achieved the league and cup championships together after being absent for 27 years, and I consider it a great achievement for me. “.
Those were previous statements by Portuguese Jesualdo Ferreira on the Qatari channel Al-Kass in 2019 about Zamalek.
The name of the Portuguese Ferreira has been linked to returning to Zamalek again, as FilGoal.com knows, after an experiment that ended with the conquest of the local double title for the whites in the 2015-16 season.
What did Ferrera do after Zamalek?
Diagonal Dam
The 74-year-old Portuguese, since his departure from Zamalek, led the Qatari team Al-Sadd, with which he achieved success, and then the Brazilian Santos lives in an unfinished experience.
Ferreira assumed the role of the Qatari dam in November 2015, succeeding the Moroccan Hussein Amouta, and remained in charge of the technical department for 4 seasons, during which he achieved 4 titles.
In the first season they finished the league in third place, 15 points behind Al Rayyan, and during the next two seasons it ended a summer for Khouya and Al Duhail in the standings.
The team’s 2018-19 league title victory under his leadership came with a record number as its players scored 94 goals on the season, including 39 goals for Bagdad Boungah, and the team won 17 games, drew 3 and lost. just a game.
Which led to the team appearing in the Club World Cup for the first time in its history and winning the award for best coach of the season in 2017 and 2019.
In the crowning season, Al Sadd followed the 4-3-3 formation, which morphed somewhat into 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-2-1.
And the league title became the third of his career on 3 different continents in Europe with Porto Portugal and Africa with Zamalek and Al Sadd to become the fourth Portuguese coach to achieve the league title in different countries after Arthur George, José Mourinho and Vitor Pereira.
After ending his contract with Al Sadd, he left the Qatari national team and Chabi Hernández arrived in his place.
Brazilian saints
At the beginning of the experience, Ferrera said he was coming to bring the team back to the podium after replacing Argentine Jorge Sampaoli, who finished the 2019 and summer season with Flamengo.
Torcedores had made it clear that Ferrera’s mission with Santos would be “to win titles and balance the team in all 2020 tournaments without losing, since the DNA of the club is offensive play and outstanding performance.”
Ferreira stayed true to his ideas and relied on a 4-3-3 attack plan by leaning on the matches in the presence of skilled people such as Caio George, Yeverson Sotildo, Artur Gomes or Rennell and Eduardo Sasha in the attack, and behind of them the Uruguayan veteran Carlos Sánchez, who offers the offensive increase.
The team under his leadership scored 13 goals in 11 games, but conceded 14 goals, which caused the early exit of the championship team “Campionato Paulista” from the Sao Paulo state championship in the quarterfinals against Ponte Berta after losing 3-1 and continue the campaign without titles since 2016.
Ferrera had attacked the referee before the expulsion of a player from the team in 3 consecutive matches of the tournament, which contributed to the team’s exit from the competition and the loss of the last two matches.
4 days before the opening of the new season, Santos announced the dismissal of Ferreira.
Ferreira’s experiment with fish lasted 7 months, with the season halted by the Coronavirus outbreak.
In total, the 74-year-old Portuguese was the team captain in 15 games, winning 6, drawing 4 and conceding 5 losses.
Some attributed the reason for the departure of the Portuguese player to the economic suffering of Santos, after FIFA prevented the conclusion of agreements due to the accumulation of debts, which caused the departure of Sampaoli earlier, and Ferreira spoke more than once about the need for team support.
