Recently loaned by São Paulo to play for Fluminense, midfielder Alisson posted a veiled message on his social media about the dismissal of coach Hernán Crespo. The player left Tricolor after just one appearance in the season and a failed negotiation with rival Corinthians, which caused outrage.

“I don’t mess with social media, but today is a completely different day. God never sleeps and the truth always comes out. Character, for me, is never negotiable. Life goes on and I’m sure that when you do the right thing, life shows you,” wrote the player on Instagram.

“Man, nobody tells the truth?! It’s strange! Unfortunately, we didn’t win the title, but good things with good people can’t go wrong!” Alisson added in other posts.

No place under Crespo

The first and only time Alisson took the field was in São Paulo’s debut in 2026. On that occasion, he was named among the starting eleven in the heavy defeat to Mirassol, in the opening round of the Campeonato Paulista, at Estádio Campos Maia, in the interior of São Paulo state.

Since then, he had no more opportunities and was even left out of the squad list for the other 13 matches of the season. In the 1-0 win over Coritiba and the defeat to Palmeiras in the Paulista semifinal, the midfielder was left out. Afterwards, he was loaned to Fluminense.

Negotiation with the rival hindered Alisson

Alisson had everything set to reinforce Corinthians at the request of coach Dorival Júnior. However, after reaching an agreement with São Paulo, the Timão board reconsidered the deal and backed out of the signing.

With the disagreement, the player was reintegrated into the Tricolor squad, but received heavy criticism from São Paulo fans for the negotiation and almost signing with the São Paulo rival.
