Renato Gaúcho resigns from Fluminense after elimination in the South American Cup; club announces Marcão as interim coach

Renato stated, ‘Before coming here, I just resigned to the president. From now on, another guy will step in, you (journalists) will ask the same questions, and I want to see the answers he will give. Whether he will put the team the fans want or his own.’ He then sarcastically added, ‘I always tried to do my best for the club in all competitions. Unfortunately, we got knocked out of one, but we are doing well in the Brazilian League and the Brazilian Cup. If Fluminense were struggling in the League, I wouldn’t be leaving. Since it’s doing well, I’ll take a break and let some internet geniuses keep talking about football, as they understand football so well.’
