Diniz, em coletiva na seleção brasileira (Joilson Marconne/ CBF)
Fernando Diniz, ao abordar o número de técnicos estrangeiros no Brasil, destacou uma particularidade dos títulos conquistados. Na visão do ex-comandante da seleção, houve uma contribuição atrelada ao status de Flamengo, Palmeiras e Botafogo. Isso porque Jorge Jesus, Abel Ferreira e Luis Castro, respectivamente, contaram com o apoio de elencos milionários e jogadores de peso em seus trabalhos.
“Cita os treinadores estrangeiros que deram certo no Brasil. Vocês vão citar três, quatro, cinco no máximo. Vieram quantos, 30? É só pegar o Palmeiras: ganhou com o Cuca, o Felipão, o Vanderlei, o Abel; o Flamengo ganhou com o Dorival, o Ceni, o Jorge Jesus, o Filipe Luís.”, disse Diniz, ao Abre Aspas, do GE.
“O Botafogo com aquela quantidade de contratações também tinha potencial, já podia ter ganho em outro ano. Se você colocar estrangeiros nos times que têm maior capacidade de investimento, eles vão ter mais chances de ganhar. Se colocar brasileiro, também.”, acrescentou.
Patamar do Cruzeiro
Investindo pesado no mercado da bola, o Cruzeiro manteve Diniz em 2025, mas a trajetória não foi longa. Apesar do desligamento, o técnico avalia que o plantel montado pela diretoria tem potencial de grandes feitos, mas é preciso paciência para um crescimento gradativo.
“Foi (trabalho conjunto com a diretoria). Eu não posso falar disso. Poucos jogadores eu que indiquei, teve um dos jogadores que já veio por parte da direção. Acho que foi um elenco bem montado, só que é uma coisa que depende, você vai falar se é bom se der resultado, se ganhar jogo.”, afirmou.

Trabalho encerrado de forma injusta?
Campeão da Libertadores pelo Fluminense, Diniz foi contratado para fazer o Cruzeiro reassumir o status de potência. Porém, não houve respaldo para o técnico seguir no cargo, algo que o profissional vê como parte da atual cultura do futebol brasileiro.
“Para mim, é meio inconcebível, o trabalho para mim não funciona, e no Cruzeiro não funcionaria comigo. Porque existe uma diferença muito grande daquilo que eu penso e que as pessoas talvez estejam por cima de mim pensam.”
“Eu fiquei no Cruzeiro, aí deu uma semana de campeonato e estava fora. Isso acontece com os outros. Começa o Brasileiro, tem uma rodada e aí você demite o cara. Não tem racionalidade! É destratar o jogo de futebol. Você não está agradando o torcedor, você está matando a chance de torcedor de ter dias melhores porque você não aguenta sofrer, não aguenta ficar.”, externou.

How far will Shedeur Sanders fall in NFL Draft? Saints pick Tyler Shough over Colorado QB in Round 2
Getty Images Shedeur Sanders was not selected in the first round of the NFL Draft, and it may be a while until Sanders is picked in the second round (and this is assuming he's picked in Round 2). CBS Sports NFL insider Jonathan Jones doesn't know if Sanders will be picked within the first 10 picks of the second round -- which are Nos. 33 to 42. The New Orleans Saints had the No. 40 pick and selected Louisville's Tyler Shough over Sanders, making Shough the third quarterback taken in the draft. So where would Sanders go with Shough off the board? The New York Jets are the No. 42 pick and already have Justin Fields, while the San Francisco 49ers possess the No. 43 pick (and Brock Purdy). The Dallas Cowboys have the 44th pick, making it even more uncertain where Sanders will go. This brings […]
Patriots draft TreVeyon Henderson: Every-down upside with Jahmyr Gibbs-esque explosion means RB1 dreams
Getty Images The New England Patriots continued to build out their offense around franchise quarterback Drake Maye by selecting Ohio State running back TreVeyon Henderson with the No. 38 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft just two picks after his Buckeye teammate Quinshon Judkins came off the board to the Cleveland Browns. The Patriots drafted offensive lineman Will Campbell in Round 1 and have now provided Maye with a new best friend in the backfield. Henderson joins a backfield that features Rhamondre Stevenson as their incumbent starter, but new offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels has a history of using multiple backs in his offense. McDaniels also has a history of maximizing running backs who have skill sets in the pass game. Henderson is arguably the highest-upside receiving back in this class. On tape, you can find Henderson running double moves on […]
Saints draft Tyler Shough in second round: New Orleans passes on Shedeur Sanders to select 25-year-old QB
Getty Images One of the oldest, yet most intriguing prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft is off the board, as the New Orleans Saints have selected former Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough with the No. 40 overall pick. He was the third quarterback selected this year behind Cam Ward and Jaxson Dart -- and ahead of Shedeur Sanders. Shough played seven seasons of college football and will turn 26 years old during his rookie season, but there were multiple teams who were intrigued with the former Oregon and Texas Tech signal-caller. In fact, one head coach even reportedly said Shough was his No. 1 QB in this class over Cam Ward! Shough completed 62.7% of his passes for 3,195 yards, 23 touchdowns and just six interceptions in 2024. He has a desirable frame at 6-foot-5 and legitimate arm talent as well, but did suffer […]
2025 NFL Draft best prospects available: Shedeur Sanders, Will Johnson, Mike Green headline group
Getty Images The dust is beginning to settle on Day 1 of the 2025 NFL Draft. A few prospects that had been commonly mocked in the first round are still available at the start of Day 2, including Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders. Miami quarterback Cam Ward was taken No. 1 overall, but the second quarterback was not taken until No. 25 overall when the New York Giants traded up with the Houston Texans to select Ole Miss' Jaxson Dart. In addition to Sanders, Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough and Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe are still available. Coming into the year, Michigan cornerback Will Johnson Jr. and Missouri wide receiver Luther Burden III had been popular choices among the top-10 overall in mock drafts. For different reasons, both of those players are still available for selection on Friday night. Neither is the top prospect […]

He's about a year younger than Jalen Hurts, who just won a Super Bowl MVP. He was in the same high school recruiting class as Trevor Lawrence, Justin Fields, Micah Parsons and Patrick Surtain II.
