It was with good humor that Abel Ferreira reacted to the umpteenth time that he was included as one of the possible replacements for Tite, who had already announced his departure after the World Cup in Qatar, to the Brazilian national team.
The Portuguese manager, recently champion of Brazil with Palmeiras, has shown that he is ‘down to earth’ on the subject.
«I understand the question, but football has taught me not to live with “ifs”. If my grandmother, if my grandfather, if my uncle, if I had Cristiano Ronaldo, if Leila [presidente do Palmeiras] hire if we go to the World Cup. I don’t live with “ifs”, I live with the here and now, with the present. And the here and now is Palmeiras, it’s my current reality and that’s how I like to live my life,” said Abel Ferreira, who has now completed two years at the helm of Verdão, with whom he has a contract until December 31, 2024.
