“This successful management is due to professional and transparent work, with the appreciation of professionals and continuity. Many journalists and fans ask me about signings and my focus has always been on keeping professionals who have shown stability over the years in terms of performance on the field. Palmeiras’ biggest reinforcement is this. Believe in professionals who are working. I would like to inform you that we have renewed the contract with our coach Abel Ferreira until December 2025”stated the president.

“As you know, it was my desire to keep this winning coach with us for so long and it is great news for our fans, our institution and for Abel and his coaching staff. I’m sure he’s very happy, he believes in the project’s continuation and we’re going to stay strong, always fighting for as many titles as possible.”added Leila Pereira.
Fine in the contract
“We have to be very careful, when I am against confidentiality clause, it is not about salaries, images. These are contracts with athletes and professionals, this requires confidentiality and I will not open it. I am against confidentiality in sponsorship contracts, any other type that is not an employment contract, linked to image or CLT. If you opened the other contracts, everything would be easier, you would unmask many liars. Liars love confidentiality. The vast majority of what they say, my dear friends, I believe in 1%. Even more so in football.”
