According to the official news of the Baliga giants Corinthians, the team hired The Portuguese coach Vitor Pereira as the team manager. The two parties signed the agreement until December 31, 2022.
Portuguese coaches become mainstream The late Chinese Super League coach corinthians
Corinthians are one of the biggest clubs in Brazilian football, and they have won the Baliga title seven times, ranking third in history. However, the team's results have not been satisfactory in recent years, with the Brazilian state championship team in São Paulo losing 2-1 at home to Santos at home earlier this month, and after the game, the team announced the dismissal of local coach Silvigno, who took over the team last May. In the past four games, Corinthians have been interim manager by Fernando Lazaro, and the team has also achieved an unbeaten record of 3 wins and 1 draw, but Corinthians has no intention of turning Lazaro around, and the team is still looking for an experienced official manager.
With the remarkable achievements of Portuguese coaches such as Jesus in Brazil in the past few years, coupled with the fact that Abel Ferreira coached Palmeiras last year to defeat flamenco coached by local coaches Gojo and win the Copa Libertadores championship twice, Portuguese coaches have become the mainstream choice for The Brazilian league giants, as can be seen from flamenco's dismissal of Gaucho and the poaching of Portuguese coach Paulo Sousa from the Polish national team. Therefore, as a traditional strongman in the First Division, Corinthians also locked in the selection of the new coach as the Portuguese coach Vitor Pereira.
Vitor Pereira had been in charge of Shanghai SIPG in the Chinese Super League for 3 years, after which he returned to the Turkish Super League to coach Fenerbahce, and was overshadowed in December last year due to poor results in the team, and Pereira, who has many coaching resumes in various giants outside the five major leagues in Europe, was also close to going to the Premier League, and even took the initiative to disclose the internal information that he will coach Everton in the Premier League. However, he did not get his wish, and Pereira, who wanted to take his coaching career to a higher level, initially refused Corinthian's invitation, in order to persuade Pereira, Corinthians negotiated twice, which lasted 20 days, and finally reached an agreement with Pereira, according to Brazilian media, Pereira's monthly salary was as high as 1.7 million reais, which was 300,000 euros. Even if Brazil is strong, Corinthians need to finalize new sponsors as soon as possible in the near future to make up for the high salary of Hiring Pereira.
Acting coach Fernando Lazaro has led the team to excellent results, but the past four games have faced teams in the lower leagues of Brazil, and The four games after Pereira's appointment will face the four traditional giants of Balagantino, São Paulo, Ponte Preta and Palmeiras, and the pressure on Pereira can be imagined.

Corinthians' desire to hire a Portuguese coach inadvertently added Chinese Super League color to Corinthians. Pereira officially became the manager of Shanghai SIPG in the Chinese Super League on December 12, 2017, and led Shanghai SIPG to end Guangzhou Evergrande's seven-year status as the hegemon of the Chinese Super League in 2018, winning the Chinese Super League championship in history. In the three seasons that Pereira has been in charge of SIPG, SIPG has won the 2018 Chinese Super League championship and the 2019 Chinese Football Association Super Cup, creating the best record in team history.
The glorious era of the Chinese Super League has passed, many South American players who have played in the Chinese Super League for many years have returned to the Baliga, and Corinthian, who started low and went high last season, was forced to finally win the Fifth League's Copa Libertadores in the new season by introducing the old Chinese Super League players Guedes, Augusto and other people in the middle of the season.
At the end of last year, the team signed paulinho of the former Guangzhou team, the two sides signed a contract until 2023, in January this year, the team also renewed the contract with the former Shandong veteran Gil gil whose contract is about to expire until 2023, plus the aforementioned Guedes (former Shandong), Augusto (former Beijing Guoan) and Ruo (former Jiangsu), Corinthians already has as many as 5 former Chinese Super League foreign aides in the squad. These five players are also the main players in the Corinthian squad.
It is worth mentioning that former Shenhua player Tevez recently denied the rumors of his being robbed on social media, and as an Argentine player, Tevez was also wearing a Corinthian jersey. Tevez had and had brief spells at Corinthians as a player, and the Argentine shooter, who currently has no ball to play after Boca's termination, has no possibility of joining Corinthians (perhaps joining MlS League team Washington United), but it also gives fans some room for reverie. Recently, foreign football reporters revealed that Corinthians has recently been discussing joining with Diego Costa.
In addition, Corinthians also have former Chelsea and Arsenal winger Willian, who joined on a free transfer last summer. With such a star-studded Corinthian, the new season of The First Division is indeed worthy of the expectations of fans.
Brazilian league super league stars gather to reminisce about the glory of the chinese super league in the past
In 2016, Corinthians won the 2015 Baliga title, but in the first transfer window after winning the championship, capital from the Chinese Super League almost hollowed out Corinthians' main team, when Corinthians Chairman Andrade was very angry at the chinese Super League clubs for privately meeting players and agents to poach players with high salaries. Feng Shui took turns, salary restrictions began to cannon, the epidemic made the Chinese Super League press the pause button, and the Brazilian League, which is the most lying and anti-epidemic in South America, gradually recovered, opening up the economic gap with the Argentine Super League and becoming the number one league in South American football.
It is precisely for this reason that many former Chinese Super League players who have returned to South America also regard The Bajia as the most ideal place to go. Last season, Atlético Mineiro beat two Copa Libertadores finalists Palmeiras and Flamengo to win the Baliga title, relying on the outstanding performance of former Shanghai SIPG's foreign assistant Hulk, and the manager of Atlético Mineiro is also an acquaintance of the Chinese Super League, Kuka. You know, another Shandong acquaintance Tardelli also left his own footprints at Atletico Mineiro last season, but unfortunately, he missed the opportunity to follow the team to win the championship in the middle of the season, and Santos even had Chinese international Gao Lat and Xiao Junlong, a young player who stayed in the Ocean, in the recent São Paulo State Championship, Gaulat also scored to become the first Chinese player to score in the São Paulo State Championship. In addition, São Paulo State's other giants, São Paulo, also has two Jiangsu veterans, Eder and Miranda.
The glory days of the Chinese Super League have passed, and while we are exploring the possibility of restoring the home-and-away system in the league, Brazil is still in the state league and the domestic league. We can only reminisce about the glory of the Chinese Super League in the Brazilian league. (Back-ups/MIKU)
