Crespo coach shares insults at Roger Machado, sparks tension at São Paulo | OneFootball

Among all the members of Hernán Crespo's coaching staff who were dismissed, no one seemed more upset by the sudden decision of the management than the goalkeeping coach Gustavo Nepote.

A clear indication of this was given by the Argentine professional on the morning of this Sunday (22), when he used his social media to share videos of São Paulo fans insulting the current coach, Roger Machado, after the 1-0 defeat to rivals Palmeiras, right at Morumbi, on Saturday (21), in the Brazilian Championship.

Nepote never hid his anger with the management over the dismissal. Since it happened, about two weeks ago, he has been publicly expressing his opinion on the matter, either with his own posts or by sharing messages he received from fans.

The professional was even one of the last members of Crespo's staff to leave Brazil. Since the dismissal, he made a point of meeting with players and club staff and posting photos on social media, suggesting that he was trying to refute the information that there was no good relationship between the Argentines and the group, a hypothesis raised at the time of the dismissal.

“Today marks the end of another chapter in my career and, unexpectedly, I have to say goodbye to this wonderful group,” Nepote wrote in his farewell post to the club, where he received support from almost everyone in the squad and the permanent coaching staff of Tricolor.

According to AVANTE MEU TRICOLOR, Nepote's attitude was poorly received internally among the management and some athletes. At the very least, the attitude was considered ‘unethical’.

“It is a clear disrespect to Roger, who had nothing to do with his departure,” a source told the report. “If it were the other way around, would he like it?”

Nepote's provocative stance ensures that with Rui Costa, Crespo and his staff will never work again. Fortunately for the Argentines, if they ever want to return, the current management will only last until the end of the year.
