The constant requests for signings to reinforce the cast showed a certain Ramón Díaz’s discomfort with the delay in receiving reinforcements and also with not getting the desired players. On the other hand, the Vasco board was irritated by the coach’s sexist statementwhen he said it was ”complicated that whoever decides in the VAR is a woman”.
So much so that the SAF released an official note criticizing the speech, even though the Argentine apologized and said it was misinterpreted. But what bothered the most, besides the lack of results and tactical evolution, was the news that circulated last week, when Radio Continental in Buenos Aires published a possible conversation between Ramón and a journalist, demonstrating his desire to take over River Plate and that I would need to see the project.
This situation increased the understanding of managers that the coach had shown a desire to leave recently. This was confirmed with the farewell speech in the locker room, after Criciúma’s defeat. Ramón and his son, Emiliano Díaz, were shaken by the players’ request for them to continue.
But at that point, Vasco already knew about the Argentines’ decision, who informed the football manager, Clauber Rocha, and approved the club’s communication to release the official departure notewhich would become a crisis and end the relationship with the coach in a negative way.
Ramón Díaz’s termination fine is high
The parties will meet in the coming days to make the exit official and seek an agreement. And Vasco trusts the witnesses who heard the coach say he was leaving, so as not to lose out. Meanwhile, the new football director, Pedro Martins, which officially arrives this week, now will have the mission to find a replacement as soon as possible.
