After being elected last Saturday, 25th, new president of Corinthians, Augusto Melo, announced the club’s idol as the first member of the board
After being elected the next president of the Corinthianslast Saturday, 25th, Augusto Melo announced the first name of the club’s board of directors during his administration. This is the former defender Chicaowho was a player on the team between 2008 and 2013, and had a feud with the team that was in power in recent years.
According to the announcement of the new president, Chicão will have the job of providing a link between the professional team and the youth teams. The idea is for him to carry out action closer to the players, and that is why the name of a former athlete and club idol would have been chosen for this position.
It is worth remembering that the former player was renegade by the last administrations, which had as leader, Andres Sanchez. The group that will become opposition in 2024 does not confirm the reason for the fight, but guarantees that Chicão would not have had a decent attitude towards the club, which caused them to cut him out of title celebrations in which he participated.
Meanwhile, the biggest suspense held by Augusto Melo is the hiring of the football executive, a position held by Alessandro Nunes at the moment. The president-elect guaranteed that he will be someone from the market, and the press places the leader of the Atlético-MG, Rodrigo Caetanoas the favorite.
Last weekend, Augusto also confirmed that he will begin the transition to his management this Monday, the 27th, with the help of the current president, Duílio Monteiro Alves. The elected representative will remain in power for the next three years (24, 25, 26) after overturning the situation in the elections, which had been in power for 17 years.
Speak Faithful!! Just to clarify, the idol Chicão will be our integration coordinator from base to professional!! For the position currently occupied by Alessandro, we will bring a professional market executive!! Let’s go together!! #save the Corinthianspic.twitter.com/nZELSNK6U5
