Atlético MG is tipped to keep Eduardo Codete as coach. See the scenario and club decisions | Athlete- mg

It seems that the future of Eduardo Coudet is set in Atlético MG, at least in the current scenario. Barring a turnaround, the scenario suggests that the Argentine coach is still in charge, and will be on the edge of the grass at Mineirão to lead the Alvinegro players this Wednesday, 9:30pm (Brasilia time), the day of his Copa do Brasil debut.

a General Electric It found that the Atletico board of directors will still make a formal internal decision, but the collective body members’ talks are moving towards preserving the Argentine and his entourage in the face of last Thursday’s controversial statements.

Although the relationship of trust between the coach and the Gallo summit needed to be rebuilt, the heavier factor was the contractual fine. Eduardo Coudete’s dismissal by Atlético will only have his way if the Argentine accepts a request he made himself 20 days ago: a lifting of the fine in the event of termination, for both sides.

As of Tuesday morning, he hadn’t signed the additive that Gallo had already formulated. The values ​​are high, around R$30 million, Because it would also involve leaving the five assistants who accompany Chacho on a daily basis. They are: Ariel Brughi (assistant), Diego Monárez (assistant), Octavio Manera (physical prep), Guido Critari (physical prep) and Carlos Fernandez (performance analysis).

Eduardo Codete’s contract at Atlético expires in December 2024. His general discontent was based on planning to deviate from what was explained to him when he was appointed, and what he saw happen, such as players leaving, without replacing the parts themselves.

Atlético’s management, through the collective body, questioned Coudet in internal meetings, saying, for example, that he leads the team with the third highest salary in Brazil – R$18 million per month, behind Flamengo and Palmeiras.

Coudet even apologized on Friday for his words in the press conference following Libertad’s defeat in the Libertadores. He won the Campeonato Mineiro against America on Sunday, and now he’ll face the challenge of starting the 2023 Copa Brasil, against Brazil de Pelotas. Whether it’s a long-term stay or just a staycation, the results and the relationship will show everyday.
