Flamengo have agreed to hire Leonardo Jardim after dismissing Filipe Luís, according to Coluna Do Fla.

In 2013, it was alleged in Greece that he became involved with Athanazia Marinakis, wife of Olympiacos owner Evangelos Marinakis. It was further alleged the owner then called him to a meeting and dismissed him.

Jardim’s stint at Olympiacos was short. He left after 17 matches with 14 wins and three draws, meaning he did not lose a game.

A month after his departure, he denied the allegation in a Portuguese magazine interview.

Jardim is married to Carla and the pair keep a low profile. They are already in Rio de Janeiro, and he starts work on Wednesday at Ninho do Urubu.
