Tite reveals resentment towards Flamengo after club sacking | OneFootball

Flamengo chose to sack Tite in September 2024

Currently without a club, Tite coached Flamengo for almost a year, between 2023 and 2024. The coach’s relationship with Mengão came to an end after that season’s elimination from the Libertadores. Almost two years later, the coach revealed that he was upset with the way the dismissal was handled.

—I was very upset because I wasn’t able to say goodbye to the staff or have that human connection with the players. I only got to say goodbye a year and a half later, when we faced each other. I was asked not to go. So, it’s a lack of human respect. At an extraordinary club, of extraordinary greatness — Tite told ‘GE’.

How was Tite’s spell at Flamengo?

Tite arrived at Flamengo in October 2023 to replace Argentine coach Jorge Sampaoli. It was the experienced manager’s first job after leaving the Brazilian National Team. In charge of Mengão, he managed 68 matches, with 41 wins, and won the Carioca title.

However, after a run of poor results, including elimination from the Libertadores by Peñarol (URU), the Flamengo board decided to end Tite’s contract. As a result, Filipe Luís, who was the under-20 team’s coach at the time, was chosen to take over the role with the senior team.

What is Flamengo’s next match?

Meanwhile, Flamengo is preparing for its next commitment of the season. This Thursday (14), the Rubro-Negro will face Vitória again at 9:30 PM (Brasília time), at Barradão, in the second leg of the fifth round of the Copa do Brasil.

So, as tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the match between Flamengo and Vitória through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Sportv (cable TV) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Copa do Brasil match.
