O Corinthians reagiu à negativa da Conmebol. O clube vai entregar documentos complementares e pedir que a CBF solicite à entidade continental a revisão da decisão que barrou a licença de treinador de Clarence Seedorf. O anúncio foi feito nesta segunda-feira (2/11), por meio de nota oficial.
A licença do holandês é a Uefa Pro, obtida no futebol europeu. O clube sustenta que o treinador tem currículo e condições compatíveis com o que a entidade exige, e lembra que o nome dele já aparece no BID, o Boletim Informativo Diário da CBF.
O primeiro trecho da nota divulgada pelo Corinthians é este:
“O Sport Club Corinthians Paulista informa que foi notificado pela Confederação Brasileira de Futebol (CBF) sobre a não homologação por parte da CONMEBOL da Licença PRO UEFA do técnico Clarence Seedorf.”
“O Clube entende que o treinador reúne currículo e condições que atendam todos os critérios solicitados pela CONMEBOL para a homologação da licença.”
O material adicional segue para a CBF na manhã desta terça-feira (03/11), junto com o pedido formal de revisão. Enquanto o processo de homologação estiver em trâmite, Seedorf continua comandando a equipe normalmente.
Dentro de campo, o time esboça reação. Na estreia do holandês, em 24 de outubro, o Corinthians perdeu para o Vasco da Gama por 3 x 2, pela 32ª rodada do Campeonato Brasileiro. Na rodada seguinte, bateu o Mirassol por 2 x 0 e voltou a vencer depois de 11 partidas.
O próximo compromisso é o Clássico Majestoso contra o São Paulo, quarta-feira (4/11), com bola rolando às 21h30, no MorumBIS, pela 34ª rodada do Brasileirão.
