Tite no Inter?
The information, initially released by journalist Paulo Vinícius Coelho, pointed out that the approach with the coach was led by Abel Braga. Abel’s stay as technical director for the next season was made official this Friday by president Alessandro Barcellos. Colorado is awaiting a position until next Monday.
Despite Barcellos highlighting Tite’s quality, the Colorado president denied that there is a formal negotiation. According to him, Abel made contact even before his continued position in the position was confirmed.
– Tite is a coach of enormous capacity. Naturally, it will always be considered, especially after expressing a desire to return to work. These surveys are part of the process, but, officially, I have not had this conversation. First we need to define the technician’s profile, gather information and structure an appropriate environment for decision making. There is no official progress from the club. Tite knows this, but of course it is a name that always comes on our radar – said Barcellos.
PROPOSAL SENT TO TITE#Inter makes contact with the former national team coach and awaits a response in the coming days. Besiktas also wants the South American champion.

Tite in the market
Even with harassment from international clubs, the offer presented by Inter pleased Tite, being considered competitive even in relation to the foreign market. The coach requested a few days before giving his definitive answer.
The Colorado proposal also includes the arrival of the coach’s entire technical committee, made up of three professionals: assistant Matheus Bachi, his son; assistant Vinícius Bergantin, who recently left command of Avaí; and physical trainer Fábio Mahseredjian.
At 64 years old, Tite has been without a club since September 2024, when he left Flamengo. In April this year, he turned down an offer from Corinthians and decided to take a break to take care of his mental health. In November, he announced that he felt ready to return to the sidelines.
