⚠️ Atlético announce Jorge Sampaoli’s departure | OneFootball

The draw with Remo last Wednesday night (11) sealed Jorge Sampaoli's fate at the helm of Atlético Mineiro.

The club officially announced on Thursday afternoon (12) the departure of the 65-year-old Argentine coach after the parties reached an "understanding". 

Galo has yet to win in the Brasileirão - two points in three rounds - and is out of the qualifying zone for the Mineiro knockout stage.

The season consists of two wins, seven draws, and one loss. 

Sampaoli had returned to the club on September 2 of last year, signing until December 2027.

He made his comeback in the elimination against Cruzeiro in the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil.

Sampaoli's Galo dispatched Bolívar and Independiente del Valle in the South American Cup, but ended up as runners-up after being surpassed by Lanús in the final.

Meanwhile, the performance in the Brasileirão was six wins, six draws, and six losses, with the Alvinegro finishing the competition in 11th place.
