After leaving for Lisbon, where he will land this Saturday, Bruno Spindel, Flamengo’s football director, told reporters that his mission is to hire Jorge Jesus.
“He has a great history in Flamengo. Great friendship with me, with Marcos [Braz, vice-presidente], with the president … And with the technical team. He has done a very successful job. He is a fantastic person, an outstanding coach, and there is nothing fairer than talking to a manager and understanding his capabilities and plans. Of course, we would like him to be with us at Flamengo to make more history, ”admitted Spindle.
Aware of the difficulties in recruiting Jorge Jesus, whose contract with Benfica expires at the end of the season, the Brazilian coach does not disarm: “We have to talk about this. We would like him to be here with us again. We know that he has a contract with Benfica and this is a difficult window for European coaches. The season ends in the middle of the year and it is difficult to hire. “
As a reminder, Bruno Spindel has on his agenda a meeting with Paulo Sousa, the current coach of Poland, with Carlos Carvalyal, coach of SC Braga, and Paulo Fonseca, who currently has no club.
V vice Marcos Braz was supposed to accompany Spindle on the trip, but due to the flu, he leaves for Portugal only on Saturday.
