Vanderlei Luxemburgo caught the attention of fans on social media this Tuesday (17). This is because the former Flamengo coach accepted an invitation from ASA, a Série D team of the Brasileirão, to give a lecture to the players of the team from Agreste, Alagoas.
On the occasion, Vanderlei Luxemburgo, who is currently unemployed, gave a lecture to the players and coaching staff of ASA. The former Flamengo coach went to the club's training center in Arapiraca to carry out the event.
“Today was a day for a special visit at CT Noel Alves. None other than Luxemburgo, who was present, talked and had a great chat with the black-and-white squad. Exchange of experiences, football stories, and words that further contribute to ASA’s growth. Experience, respect, and learning at home,” said ASA in a post on Instagram.
Currently, ASA is set to compete in Série D of the Brazilian Championship. At the moment, the team from Alagoas is also alive in the state championship, where they are in the semifinals to face Murici. Finally, they will also compete in the Copa do Brasil, where they will play against Operário-MS.
Vanderlei Luxemburgo was both a player and a coach for Flamengo. As a player, he played in more than 150 matches between 1971 and 1978. Later, he had four stints as head coach. Finally, he won the Carioca championship four times, combining both periods at the club.
