Atlético-MG are going through a turbulent time on and off the pitch ahead of their match against Flamengo in the Brasileirão. It’s no surprise, then, that Hulk, an idol of the Minas Gerais club, hinted at a departure from the team during a press conference this Thursday (23).
“Who knows, when I leave Galo, based on the conversation I had with those in charge, I might leave Galo in the middle of the year, at the end of the year… Who knows, when I leave, I’ll really say what needs to be said.”
“We’re fine, we’re focused. Salaries are up to date. I have some pending issues, but I’m not going to expose anyone. I didn’t do that in January, when I was attacked a lot over lies. Even so, I kept my respect in the name of the institution. I had the opportunity (to expose it).”
“I always try to respect everyone. What the coach said was, of course, harsh. However, I don’t know if that’s what Barba (Eduardo Domínguez) meant to say. It’s not a lack of commitment. If you look at the GPS data, our workload is good and high. I’ve already spoken with Barba.”
Yes! Despite the win over Ceará in the Copa do Brasil, Atlético-MG are going through an unstable period this season. Before that, they lost 2-0 to Coritiba in the Brasileirão and remained in the bottom half of the league table.
Currently, Flamengo are in second place in the Brazilian Championship standings, with 23 points. Atlético-MG, meanwhile, are in 12th place with 14 points. In other words, there is a nine-point gap between the teams.
Flamengo’s match against Atlético-MG is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. (Brasília time) this Sunday (26), at Arena MRV, for the 13th round of the Brasileirão. Therefore, Premiere, on pay-per-view, will broadcast the clash throughout Brazil.
