Rodolfo Landim, president of Flamengo, said he was upset about the departure of Jorge Jesus to Benfica in June 2020, accusing the Portuguese coach of not talking to the team, managers and technical staff. “As it turned out, it was obvious that this was the case. [fiquei chateado]. He dedicated himself not only to me, but to the whole group. [jogadores e staff técnico] to stay here at least until the end of the 2020 calendar year. The contract extension, and then the abrupt departure, prevented all preparatory work for the shutdown season after Covid-19 and the possible adaptation of a new technician that we would have hired for him if we knew that he would not stay “, the leader reminded reporters this Monday.
As for the current situation, with the presence of JJ in Brazil in recent days, Landim has become worthless. “I have nothing to say about his coming to Brazil. He lived here, he definitely left friends, and it is only natural that he comes to kill nostalgia,” repeated the President of the emblem of Rio de Janeiro.
