Despite the hope of a comeback, the discussions between Jorge Sampaoli and FC Santos have stumbled, ending any second term of the Argentinian coach on the Brazilian club bench.
Jorge Sampaoli will not return to FC Santos. Despite talks with the Brazilian club in recent days, the various parties have failed to find an agreement. Result of the races, the Paulista management decided to end the discussions.
The Peixe has failed to meet the wage requirements of the Argentinian coach. His pay -plan requests have been deemed too heavy, according to the Brazilian media Globo Esporte.
Bakambu, the dream reinforcement of Sampaoli
In addition to the financial elements, Sampaoli also demanded the recruitment of reinforcements, such as the Congolese striker Cédric Bakambu. But that's not all, the South American technician also envisaged changes in the medical and organizational staff.
The former coach of Olympique de Marseille will therefore not be the one on which the Santos FC, faced with heavy budgetary constraints, can count to straighten up. The 65-year-old tactician was envisaged to take over from Cléber Xavier, dismissed after the heavy defeat suffered against Vasco Da Gama (0-6) on Sunday in the league.
