🚨 Breaking: major Brasileirão club announces manager exit
🚨 Breaking: major Brasileirão club announces manager exit Grêmio announced the departure of head coach Luis Castro this Sunday (13), a day after the comeback loss to Vasco at home. So, fans, did you like the decision? Who should take charge of the Tricolor now? In a note, Grêmio also said that Felipão will take over on an interim basis and will lead the team against Botafogo on Wednesday (16). The result left the Rio Grande do Sul Tricolor in 15th place in the Brasileirão, with 28 points. The club is ahead of Vasco itself, which opens the relegation zone, thanks to goal difference. In the Copa do Brasil, the situation is VERY different. Grêmio is three games away from the title. The club from Rio Grande do Sul will face Atlético-MG in the semifinal. If they advance, they will play the final (a single match) against Palmeiras or Vasco. The Copa do Brasil champion goes straight into the group stage of the 2027 Libertadores. And the runner-up goes to the playoffs. In the Copa Sudamericana, Grêmio was knocked out by Bolívar in the round of 16 playoffs. And in the Gauchão, the Tricolor beat Internacional in the final and was crowned champion. Overall, Luis Castro recorded 19 wins, 14 draws, and 17 losses in 50 matches. Not counting the state championship, however, the coach had more losses (15) than wins (14). Luis Castro had a contract until December 2027, a salary of around R$ 2 million, and a release clause of approximately R$ 30 million. With Felipão, Grêmio will face Botafogo at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday (16), at Nilton Santos, in a postponed Brasileirão match. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
