However, the dream of the rubro-negros remains Jorge Jesus. Spindel did not deny the intention of trying to get Mister back.

“We are going to try a coach for Flamengo, confident that it will work. Of course Jorge Jesus is an option. We have a lot of affection for him. He has enormous recognition, gratitude, friendship and trust in him,” he told TVI / CNN.

“We don’t have an appointment yet, but every time we went to Portugal we always met, had a coffee, had lunch. It has more than professional issues, it has friendship. There’s nothing more natural than talking to him”, he added.

But Jorge Jesus is employed at the Benfica. Even under pressure, the commander says he is focused only on the Portuguese club. In addition, the newspaper The ball published that the coach rejected offer to return to the red-black team.

With the possible denial of Jesus, Flamengo will look for another option. Paulo Sousa, Carlos Carvalhal, Paulo Fonseca and Rui Vitória are the other names evaluated by the Rio club.
