Diretor do São Paulo promete definir o substituto de Ceni até domingo

MatériaMais Notícias

Pouco depois de o clube decidir pela demissão de Rogério Ceni, o diretor executivo de futebol Vinicius Pinotti tranquilizou membros da comissão técnica e prometeu anunciar o substituto antes do jogo contra o Santos, no domingo, na Vila Belmiro. Com Dorival Júnior como prioridade, existe até a possibilidade de ele estar no banco de reservas no clássico.

Por enquanto, não está garantido que o ex-volante Pintado, membro permanente da comissão técnica e que segue no clube, comandará a equipe no fim de semana, apesar de ser uma possibilidade vista como bem possível pela diretoria. A ideia é que a partida já tenha a participação do novo responsável por acabar com uma sequência de seis rodadas sem vitória que colocou o clube na zona de rebaixamento do Campeonato Brasileiro.

No momento, a prioridade da diretoria é contratar Dorival Júnior, desempregado desde o começo do mês passado, quando foi demitido pelo Santos. Os dirigentes querem anunciá-lo o quanto antes e estão cientes de que ele, costumeiramente, não espera muito tempo antes de já começar a trabalhar nas partidas do times em que assume.

Em conversa com membros da comissão técnica, Pinotti também tranquilizou os profissionais e disse que não ocorrerão mais mudanças. Além de Rogério Ceni, também foi desligado o francês Charles Hembert, trazido pelo ex-goleiro para ser supervisor. Na sexta-feira, o inglês Michael Beale, contratado a pedido do ídolo para ser auxiliar, já tinha pedido para deixar o clube.

O elenco, que teve folga nesta segunda-feira, dia seguinte à derrota por 2 a 0 para o Flamengo, no Rio de Janeiro, tem reapresentação marcada para a tarde desta terça-feira, no CT da Barra Funda. Será a primeira atividade desde a saída de Rogério Ceni.

O São Paulo não vence desde que aplicou 2 a 0 no Vitória, no Morumbi, em 8 de junho. Desde então, o time, em casa, perdeu do Atlético-MG e empatou diante do Fluminense e, como visitante, foi derrotado por Corinthians, Atlético-PR e Flamengo e ficou no 0 a 0 com o Sport.

A demissão de Rogério Ceni, que iniciou seu trabalho há seis meses, custará R$ 5 milhões ao São Paulo. O clube só não teria de pagar essa multa rescisória se o técnico tivesse aproveitamento inferior a 47%, e ele somou 49,54% dos pontos que disputou -em 37 jogos, foram 14 vitórias, 13 empates e dez derrotas.

Fulham struck gold on Tosin Adarabioyo

While Fulham’s transfer business in the past few years has been questionable at times, with the Cottagers shelling out £27m on Jean Michael Seri and £10.5m on Anthony Knockaert, there have also been a number of deals that have proven to be extremely smart moves by Tony Khan and his transfer team.

Arguably the most impressive of these deals was Fulham’s £1.49m signing of Manchester City centre-back Tosin Adarabioyo, with the 23-year-old having already demonstrated that he is a player worth considerably more than the nominal fee the club paid for his services.

Khan struck gold

Indeed, following his move to west London back in 2020, the centre-back highly impressed over his 33 Premier League appearances in Fulham’s 2020/21 campaign, helping his side keep nine clean sheets, as well as making an average of 1.3 interceptions, 1.1 tackles, 5.8 clearances and winning 4.1 duels per game,

These returns saw the former England U19 international earn a seasonal SofaScore match rating of 6.92, ranking him as Scott Parker’s ninth-best performer in the top flight that season – a highly impressive feat for a defender when taking into account the club’s relegation.

The £27k-per-week man has continued his upward trajectory over eight Championship appearances so far this term, helping the Cottagers keep two clean sheets, as well as making an average of 1.4 interceptions, one tackle, 3.8 clearances and winning four duels per fixture.

These metrics have seen the 23-year-old average a rather remarkable SofaScore match rating of 7.21, ranking the player Tony Mowbray dubbed an “exceptional” talent as Marco Silva’s fifth-best player in the second tier.

As such, it will likely come as no surprise to Fulham fans that Adarabioyo is now valued by Transfermarkt at £10.8m, or why a number of Premier League sides were reported to be interested in the centre-back in the summer transfer window.

And, with the sky very much appearing to be the limit for the defender’s potential, his value will only be heading in one direction in the years to come – with Tony Khan looking to have struck gold upon signing the youngster 12 months ago.

Ashraful gutted but highlights improvement

Bangladesh captain Mohammad Ashraful was left ruing what could have been, after the hosts looked to be on course to pick up their first tri-series trophy, only to be pipped at the post by Sri Lanka who held on for a two-wicket victory in the final in Mirpur.”It is a sinking feeling,” he said. “Defending 152 is very tough but when Shakib ran Sanath Jayasuriya out first ball then we all felt that it could be our day. We believed in ourselves and we knew that the the Sri Lankan top-order was not in the best of form. Our plan was to bowl straight and to be at our best in the field.”Sri Lanka had delayed taking their Powerplay and Muttiah Muralitharan, with a batting average of 6.01 coming into this game, picked the perfect time to make his highest ODI score with Sri Lanka reeling at 114 for 8.He took apart Rubel Hossain, hitting him for three fours and a six in the 46th over, but Ashraful’s move to persist with Rubel for the last power play as well, horribly backfired as Murali clouted another four and a six to level the scores with two overs to spare.”The same bowler had been outstanding in the same situation in the last match,” said Ashraful. “We had planned on giving him the ball in the Powerplay because he has the extra pace and he can bowl the bouncer and the yorker effectively. With Muralitharan on strike, I backed him to get a wicket but he couldn’t pitch it in the spots he wanted. In the end it was an unbelievable innings from Murali.”Batsman Shakib Al Hasan admitted that nerves did play a part during the final but Bangladesh would still take heart from their strong showing. “We were excited and also a touch nervous probably because we have not been in a situation like this before,” he said. “I thought we brought out our best in the field. I thought this final was fantastic education for us and we will benefit from this. We have improved a lot, we the players feel it and we are getting better and stronger all the time. I think it is showing.”

PCB forms committee to review contracts list

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has put together a committee to review the list of players awarded central contracts and decide if there is a need to amend it

Cricinfo staff20-Jan-2009The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has put together a committee to review the list of players awarded central contracts and decide if there is a need to amend it. The committee will be headed by Ijaz Butt, the PCB chairman, and comprises of PCB director general Javed Miandad, chief operating officer Salim Altaf, and Pakistan coach Intikhab Alam.The move apparently comes after criticism by a crop of former Pakistan cricketers and officials, who believe the PCB overlooked several deserving players. The PCB had initially listed 26 players for central contracts earlier this month, but had been forced into including Adbur Rauf after he complained of being treated unfairly in television interviews.But a board official said one of the main tasks of the committee would be to revive retainer contracts that first appeared in Shaharyar Khan’s administration, as an incentive for younger, upcoming players. “The committee has been set up to look also at young, upcoming players who we may put on a retainership. It was something started under Shaharyar Khan and we want to pursue that,” Altaf told Cricinfo.Among the slightly surprising decisions in this year’s list of contracts were the promotion of Shoaib Akhtar and Danish Kaneria to the top category. The contracts were awarded by the board after inputs from Intikhab, Abdul Qadir, chief selector and Yawar Saeed, the team manager, with seniority having played a significant role.

Agbonlahor slams Newcastle leaks

Gabby Agbonlahor has been left slamming the training ground leaks which emerged from Newcastle United last week.

The Lowdown: Leaks

As per The Daily Mail, both Graeme Jones and Dwight Gayle had to be broken up by Jamal Lascelles after a bust-up on training ground last week.

Some of the players were also reportedly unhappy with Steve Bruce’s training methods after their poor start to the season which has left them in 19th spot in the Premier League table after picking up a mere two points from their first five games (Premier League).

The Latest: Agbonlahor reacts

Speaking to Football Insider, former Aston Villa and England international striker Agbonlahor has now slammed the fact that the bust-up was leaked, although he claimed that they are ‘normal’ in a football club:

“That’s normal.

“I fell out with Gary McAllister badly on the training pitch at Aston Villa when he was with Gerard Houllier and nobody ever found out about it.

“It happens every week on the training ground, especially when you’re not playing. I fell out with Gary McAllister because I wasn’t playing and we had a fallout, you’re not meant to be happy when you’re not playing, you can be sulking.

“I don’t see a problem with Dwight Gayle and Graeme Jones doing that.

“The problem is the leaks at Newcastle, it’s embarrassing. Steve Bruce should try and find out who is leaking it and sack them.

“What happened to privacy?”

The Verdict: Doom and gloom

It all seems like doom and gloom at St. James’ Park at the moment, considering their start to the campaign coupled up with the leaks coming out of the training ground.

The club need to get a hold of how these leaks happened, and thus take any necessary action in order to make sure that they do not happen again.

Nonetheless, it just puts more pressure on Bruce and the team to get results on the pitch, and get the Toon Army back on their side.

Aston Villa: Fans react to Preece’s post on Konsa

Aston Villa defender Ezri Konsa was once again overlooked by England manager Gareth Southgate ahead of the upcoming international break.

Reliable Villa Park reporter Ashley Preece shared a post regarding Konsa’s snub on Thursday, which led to a number of Villa fans giving their thoughts on social media.

Ollie Watkins earned a recall to England’s 23-man squad, while Tyrone Mings kept his place, but Konsa is yet to be included for the first time.

AC Milan’s Fikayo Tomori was given the nod due to Manchester United’s Harry Maguire not being available.

Preece took to Twitter shortly after England’s squad was announced, labelling Konsa as a Rolls-Royce of a defender.

The 23-year-old has been a regular under Dean Smith in recent seasons, with Preece describing Konsa as a phenomenal and consistent performer.

Villa fans react

Preece appeared to be disappointed that Konsa’s recent displays weren’t rewarded by Southgate, and these Villa fans weren’t happy with the defender’s exclusion, with one labelling it as ‘insane’.

"جدع ولكن".. ميدو يوجه رسالة لـ سيد عبد الحفيظ بعد تجاهل الممر الشرفي للزمالك

علق أحمد حسام ميدو المدير الفني السابق لوادي دجلة، على امتناع سيد عبد الحفيظ مدير الكرة بالنادي الأهلي عن دخول الممر الشرفي الذي نظمه الزمالك أثناء مراسم تسليم الميداليات الفضية في نهائي كأس مصر.

وامتنع سيد عبد الحفيظ عن مصافحة مرتضى منصور رئيس الزمالك أو دخول الممر الشرفي بعد خسارة الأهلي بهدفين مقابل هدف يوم الخميس الماضي.

وقال ميدو خلال حديثه ببرنامج “الريمونتادا” المذاع على قناة “المحور”: “الممر الشرفي هذا ليس بروتوكول معروف في مصر، لذلك لا نعتاد عليه”.

وأضاف: “شاهدت تصريحات سيد عبد الحفيظ بعد مباراة الأهلي والجونة، وأحييه لأنه (راجل جدع)، لا يوجد شخص يقبل الإهانة من أي أحد”.

وواصل: “أنا مع سيد عبد الحفيظ مليون في المائة، لا تتقبل الإهانة، ولكن كنت أتمنى أن يحترم البروتوكول الذي أقره اتحاد الكرة وأرسله للناديين أن الفريق الذي يخسر ينظم ممرًا شرفيًا للآخر بعد نهائي كأس مصر”.

وتابع: “نحن كلاعبين كرة قدم لا نقبل إهانتك، ولكن هذا الممر الشرفي نادي الزمالك هو الذي نظمه لك، واحترامًا لتاريخك وللعلاقة الطيبة بين الناديين التي قام البعض بتشويهها للأسف في السنوات الأخيرة”.

وأردف: “كان على سيد عبد الحفيظ أن يسير داخل الممر الشرفي ولا يخرج منه ولا يصافح مرتضى منصور، ولا يوجد مدير كرة يفعل ما فعله”.

واستأنف: “أنا مع سيد عبد الحفيظ قلبًا وقالبًا، لا أحد يقبل الإهانة ولن تكون رجلًا إذا تقبلتها، ولكن هذا ليس له علاقة بالممر الشرفي الذي أقره اتحاد الكرة، ومشكلتك مع مرتضى منصور ليس لها علاقة”.

وتابع: “لا يوجد أحد طلب منك أن تتقبل الخسارة، هناك فرق بين تقبلك الخسارة وبين أن تكون خاسرًا سيئا، الزمالك فاز على الأهلي كرة قدم داخل الملعب، لكن ما فعلته أنت برفضك دخول الممر الشرفي يثبت أنك خاسر سيء”.

واختتم: “لو كنت مكانك يا سيد لدخلت الممر وصافحت لاعبي الزمالك وقلت لكل واحد منهم مبروك ولكن سنفوز بالدوري”.

Trio renova com o Santos e exalta reconhecimento: 'Privilégio'

MatériaMais Notícias

Lucas Veríssimo, Jean Mota e Daniel Guedes renovaram contratos com o Santos até junho de 2022. Para o trio, a novidade é motivo de reconhecimento para o trabalho no Peixe. Guedes resumiu a situação como um privilégio.

– É o reconhecimento do trabalho. Ficamos felizes por esse privilégio. Vestir a camisa, viver momentos maravilhosos pelo clube. É continuar trabalhando firme e forte para conquistar coisas importantes. Está na hora de conquistarmos títulos de expressão. É muito importante para a carreira do atleta, para mim principalmente, estou há sete anos aqui. Espero corresponder dentro de campo. Cabe a nós agora buscar evoluir – explicou o camisa 38.

Com mais cinco anos garantidos, Jean comemorou ao lado de Veríssimo. Ambos se recordaram da fase em que tiveram poucas oportunidades dentro do clube e ressaltam o trabalho que fizeram para chegar onde estão.

– Nos dá confiança muito grande, dentro e fora de campo. Sabemos da importância de atuar. Não tive muitas oportunidades no começo, lutei por espaço, estou sendo titular, mas sei que futebol é momento. Temos que confiar no elenco, temos elenco forte e vamos brigar pelas 3 competições – disse Jean.

– Tive um momento um pouco infeliz, onde em uma data de comemoração do clube eu acabei sendo criticado (amistoso com o Benfica). Todos no meu lugar poderiam ter passado pela mesma coisa. Me mantive focado, centrado no que eu sei que eu posso alcançar. Hoje eu venho colhendo esses frutos. Não deixei peteca cair, aconteceu isso, virei um ano e procurei trabalhar nas férias porque sabia que algo de bom poderia acontecer nesse ano. Voltei na pré-temporada, me sentia bem e fui buscando espaço. Consegui e estou renovando o contrato – concluiu Veríssimo.
