Mano Menezes at Grêmio?
According to the portal ‘Gaúcha ZH’, Grêmio made the first contacts with Mano Menezes this Thursday (17/04). The gaucho is the main name to command the immortal at this time.
The board made a poll to evaluate Mano’s interest in returning to work at this time. The answer was positive, but there was no advance for discussions about salary, contract or details of working conditions at CT Luiz Carvalho.
Even due to the status of negotiations, Mano should not be announced before Gre-Nal, which will be played this Saturday (19/04), at 21h, in the Arena. Who will lead the team is James Freitas, who is part of the club’s fixed committee.

Mano Menezes has trained Grêmio?
Mano Menezes had two tickets for Grêmio. The first, between 2005 and 2007, was very striking. He arrived at a difficult time, when the club was in Serie B of the Brazilian Championship. He was primarily responsible for the team’s rebuilding and led the team in one of the most historic games in his history: the “Battle of the Afflicted” against Nautical, which secured access to Serie A even with Grêmio ending the match with only seven players on the field.
In 2006, already in the elite, Mano won the Gaucho Championship and set up a competitive team. The following year, he took Grêmio to the Copa Libertadores de America final, ending as runner-up after being defeated by Boca Juniors. The campaign, despite the deputy, was highly valued, considering the limitations of the cast at the time. After this success cycle, Mano left the club and took over Corinthians.
