The local media have been reporting that he can continue his career for several days. Flamengo’s interest in Flamengo was the loudest at first, but the Brazilian giant has a few other coaches on his wish-list as well. On Wednesday, for the first time, “Globo Esporte” wrote about the interest of Internacional Porto Alegre, whose authorities were waiting for a response from Sousa. And according to Vagner Martins, Sous said yes.
According to his information, the club’s authorities would meet Sousa on Sunday and then the two-year contract would be signed. This information was confirmed by Rodrigo Oliveira from the GauchaZH portal – initially Internacional wanted to hire the Uruguayan coach Alexandre “Cacique” Medina (he leads Talleres, who is 3rd in the Argentine league), but on Friday there was a sudden turn of events, due to which the coach of the Polish national team would cover Internacional.
Agent Sousy responded to the rumors
Sousa’s agent – Hugo Cajuda – argues, however, that the matter is not yet settled. – Friend, we are having Christmas dinner in Portugal. All I can say is there was Flamengo on Thursday, Internacional on Friday and probably another club will be on Saturday. And the truth is, we have no dealings with any club. I don’t have any meetings scheduled for Sunday – said Cajuda in an interview with Goal.com.
– The Brazilian press is crazy. Nothing happens. It’s Christmas. We cannot comment on every rumor linking the coach with some club – added Cajuda in an interview with.
Internacional is a three-time Brazilian champion and a two-time winner of the Copa Libertadores, the South American Champions League. In 2006, Internacional won the Club World Cup, defeating Barcelona 1-0 in the final. In the 2019/20 season, the club from Porto Alegre became the runner-up in Brazil, but the previous season ended in a distant 12th place (in the 20-team Serie A, playing the spring-autumn system), for which Diego Aguirre paid the job.
If the information from the Brazilian media is confirmed, it will have to look for a new coach three months before the key matches in the fight for the 2022 World Cup. On March 24, the Poles will play away with Russia. If they win, they will play at home against the winner of Sweden – Czech Republic in the play-off finals.
