Jorge Jesus and Marcelo Gallardo can no longer serve as head coach of Flamengo, Globoesporte reports. First, the appearance of a Portuguese coach was already considered unlikely, but a hypothetical Champions League expulsion could alter the chances that the Mengao-history coach has a contract with the Eagles until June 2022. He introduced himself as the successor to Renato Gaucho. but said in the past few hours that he would continue to command the Argentines on River Plate. Thus, both Portuguese and Argentine are “crossed out” as hypotheses for Flamengo. But there is another Portuguese coach that is under development: Carlos Carvalyal. According to the same source, the coach, who has a contract with Braga, is one of Flamengo’s favorites. The change will only take effect immediately if Carvalhal manages to convince António Salvador to let him go after winning the Portuguese Cup last season and thanks to several players.
