Ex-Corinthians boss resigns from Paraguayan club after just seven games | OneFootball

Coach Ramón Díaz, who recently had a notable stint with Corinthians, resigned from Olimpia, Paraguay, this Sunday, August 24, after suffering a defeat to General Caballero by 2-0, in the ninth round of the Paraguayan Clausura Championship. At this moment, the team is in the ninth position (out of 12 teams) with nine points.

The Argentine was announced on July 17 and after just over a month, he leaves the position at the Paraguayan team. In a press conference after the match, the coach commented on his departure: “We wanted to bring a lot of joy to the club, but things didn't go the way we wanted. I feel at home, so it's simply a matter of gratitude.”

His son and assistant, Emiliano Díaz, added: “Thanks to the club, the directors, everyone who worked here. In fact, we never felt so comfortable, especially at the managerial level. Things didn't go as we wanted, clearly, we are the only ones responsible,” he said.

Ramón and Emiliano Díaz arrived at Corinthians in July 2024 at a time when the club was in the penultimate position of the Brazilian Championship. In the last nine rounds of the national tournament, the Alvinegro had a sequence of nine consecutive victories and secured a spot in the Conmebol Pré-Libertadores – seventh position with 56 points.

In total, there were 58 games under the technical command of Corinthians, with 30 wins, 16 draws, and 12 losses – 61% success rate – 91 goals scored and 60 conceded. The Díaz duo won a title with the Parque São Jorge club: the 2025 Paulistão, against Palmeiras, in Itaquera, breaking a six-year title drought for the Alvinegro.

However, after the Paulista Championship, the team showed a decline in performance and after a negative sequence of results: two draws (Palmeiras and Fluminense – Brasileirão) and one draw (América de Cali – Sul-Americana) he ended up being dismissed from the position on April 17. In the 21st century, he was among the Corinthians coaches with the highest success rate.
