😳 Say what? Vasco in talks to hire coach from Rio rivals | OneFootball

Current Botafogo head coach, Portuguese manager Franclim Carvalho has become a target for Vasco to replace Renato Gaúcho.

The information was first reported by Canal do TF and also by ge.

According to ge, Vasco director Admar Lopes has already met with Samantha Longo, who is serving as the club’s legal administrator, to discuss the matter.

The then-president of Vasco’s SAF, Pedrinho, was removed from his position on the 23rd following a decision by the Rio de Janeiro court. As a result, Samantha was appointed administrator.

The expectation is that Admar and Franclim will meet this Friday (26).

One of Vasco’s advantages is that Admar, who is also Portuguese, has a good relationship with the coach’s staff.

Vasco Matos, another Portuguese coach, remains an option. But, still according to ge, Franclim is the favorite.

A former assistant to Artur Jorge at Botafogo, he was announced by Glorioso on April 2.

He has managed 16 matches since then: eight wins, five draws, and three defeats.

Alvinegro were eliminated by Chapecoense in the Copa do Brasil, but had the best campaign in the Copa Sudamericana group stage. The team currently sits 12th in the Brasileirão.
