Gigante da Colina had already lost to São Paulo and Botafogo, 2-0 and 3-0, respectively. With that, the question remains: can Diniz be fired? THE Sporting News show.
Will Fernando Diniz leave Vasco?
It is unlikely that Fernando Diniz will be fired from Vasco this week and in the short term. The coach signed a contract until December 2026, with a salary of around R$1 million. If he is fired by December 2025, the termination fine is the payment of four salaries: R$4 million.
If he is fired between January 2026 and June 2026, the fine is the payment of three salaries. If he is fired between July and December 2026, the termination fine is two salaries.
Furthermore, the coach continues to enjoy a certain prestige from the board, despite criticism from fans. Vasco achieved a good climb up the table and is in 10th place, with 42 points.
