No auge de sua carreira, Vanderlei Luxemburgo foi convidado a assumir o comando do Real Madrid em dezembro de 2004, um ano depois era demitido após desentendimento com o presidente Florentino Perez. Para o veterano treinador, esse foi o maior erro que cometeu na vida.

“A experiência traz sabedoria. A pior decisão da minha vida eu tomei com 52 anos. Sai do Real Madrid por uma intempestividade minha com o presidente”, admitiu Luxa, em entrevista ao “CNN Esportes S/A”.

Luxemburgo foi questionado pelo presidente do Real Madrid sobre algumas decisões em campo e retrucou dizendo que ele era o treinador e ele é quem tomava as decisões. Resultado: foi demitido.

“Hoje, com 72 anos, eu colocaria mão no ombro dele e diria: ‘Vamos jantar amanhã e a gente conversa’. Então, a experiência te dá ensinamentos”, avaliou o veterano treinador.

Luxemburgo vai voltar quando ao futebol?

Ainda durante o programa na CNN, Luxemburgo foi questionado sobre a chance de voltar a trabalhar com o futebol.

Segundo ele, as ofertas são frequentes, mas a decisão de voltar ainda não está definida.

“Eu ando meio afastado, e tive muitas propostas para voltar ao futebol. Essa é uma discussão minha com a minha família: volto ou não volto? Tem a possibilidade de eu ser candidato pelo estado de Tocantins, entrar para política, acho que eu poderia fazer alguma coisa para a população”, revelou o treinador.

“Eu não sei. Voltar aonde? Como? Por quê? Voltar aonde? Para discutir o quê? Então assim, voltar ao futebol, mas onde que caberia para eu voltar?”, questionou Luxemburgo.

O último trabalho do treinador foi em 2023, no comando do Corinthians.

Treinadores brasileiros defasados?

Luxemburgo também criticou uma parte da imprensa brasileira que, segundo ele, contribui para a sensação de que os técnicos brasileiros estão defasados em relação aos gringos.

“Parte da imprensa bate nisso de que hoje os técnicos do Brasil estão ultrapassados. Isso me deixa muito revoltado, porque o maior exemplo de todos os tempos do futebol brasileiro e mundial foi o Zagallo na Copa do Mundo de 1970. Como é que nós estamos ultrapassados se o Zagallo em 1970 jogava como se joga hoje?”, finalizou.

Arsenal na kolotoči. PSG si před vítězným gólem vyměnil rekordní počet přihrávek

„Těch šestadvacet přihrávek ukazuje na dynamiku a kreativitu, kterými disponujeme. Máme opravdu silný tým,“ rozplýval se portugalský záložník Vitinha, který byl vyhlášen mužem zápasu. Gólová akce začala v čase 02:07 rozehraným volným kopem u postranní čáry, balon si postupně vyměnili téměř všichni hráči PSG. Precizní dílo završil Dembélé.Hosté na Emirates vysloveně vtrhli, Arsenalu 25 minut téměř nepůjčili míč. V tento čas byl poměr držení míče 80 % ku 20 % v jejich prospěch. „Ukázali jsme velkou kvalitu. Snažili jsme se prosadit svojí hrou. Bylo skvělé, že jsme dali brzy gól.

Crystal Palace reap the rewards as Oliver Glasner’s patience starts to pay off

Oliver Glasner openly acknowledges he is not instinctively a patient man, but the Crystal Palace manager has been more forgiving than most of those players who have taken time to find their feet at the south London club.For Daichi Kamada, that might in part be born of familiarity from their time together at Eintracht Frankfurt. Yet Glasner had no prior connection with Ismaila Sarr nor Eddie Nketiah and all three, at certain points and to different extents, have found life taxing at Palace since arriving last summer.AdvertisementKamada, a high earner after his free transfer from Lazio, has only made a sporadic impact this season, operating mostly off the substitutes’ bench, before gradually delivering a more meaningful contribution over the past month or so. He came with a strong reputation; expectations were high.The story is similar for Nketiah, who joined from Arsenal […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo: Tyrese Haliburton’s dad ‘disrespectful’ in postgame run-in

Rafael Devers, Jarren Duran heating up as five-homer barrage jumpstarts Red Sox

TORONTO — Jarren Duran didn’t waste any time setting the tone on Tuesday night.Coming off a series in Cleveland in which he went 7-for-11 over the final two games, Duran smoked the third pitch of the game from Toronto starter Bowden Francis 378 feet to right-center field to set off a home run barrage for the Boston Red Sox in a 10-2 pummeling of the Blue Jays.AdvertisementAlex Bregman soon followed Duran’s leadoff homer with a solo shot of his own.
