Corinthians Reunites with Díaz Family 5 Months After Dismissal and Talks about Emiliano

Corinthians fans transmit love and affection to me. We gave a lot to Corinthians, and it gave us a lot in return. It was one of the clubs that showed me the most love, and I am eternally grateful, as is my family. It has been six months since we left, the team has been achieving good results, and they continue to show us love. Emiliano Díaz, speaking to UOL, mentioned that the dismissal by Corinthians was hard to digest. He reflected on the turbulent political moment the club was going through at the time. They realized it wasn’t about their work but about covering up a much larger issue that was public knowledge. The only bomb that would silence this was someone leaving the club, and we were the easiest targets. We realized over time that they used us for this purpose. It was the most painful moment for me. It was the first time we were dismissed from a club, and it hurt a lot. I understood the reason for the dismissal over time, which made me much calmer.Emiliano Díaz said that Dorival succeeded the Díaz family in leading the club. Hired by Augusto, the coach has been at Corinthians since the beginning of May and has a record of 11 wins, eight draws, and eight defeats. Their 50.6% win rate is lower than the 59.8% achieved by the Argentinians. Ramón and Emiliano Díaz were Augusto Melo’s choices during the delicate period Corinthians went through in 2024. The duo took over the club when they were in the relegation zone of the Brasileirão with a mission to save the team from dropping down a division. The Corinthians team started off unsteadily, but then gained momentum with the Argentine duo. The team won nine games in a row, moving from 18th place to 7th in the Brasileirão, securing a place in the pre-Libertadores. They were eliminated in the semifinals of the Copa do Brasil and the Sudamericana the same year. The peak of their work came in 2025 when Corinthians led the overall table in the first phase of the Paulistão and ended a six-year title drought with a trophy clinched against Palmeiras, including a victory in the first leg at Allianz Parque. However, the duo’s influence waned after the title. Despite the Paulista triumph, the team was ousted by Barcelona-EQU in the pre-Libertadores. The dismissal came on April 17, precisely three weeks after winning the Paulista title. The board decided to let go of Ramón and Emiliano after a 2-0 defeat to Fluminense at home in the Brasileirão. The duo left with 59 games played, including 30 wins, 16 draws, and 13 losses. Ramón and Emiliano Díaz later coached Olimpia in Paraguay before returning to Brazil to train Internacional. Their stint lasted less than two months, with the duo resigning after unsatisfactory results — two wins, three draws, and three losses.
