After less than 15 months in charge, Uruguayan Paulo Pezzolano has left Brazilian club Cruzeiro.
The 39-year-old confirmed his departure after Cruzeiro’s 2-1 loss to America Mineiro on Sunday, which eliminated the Belo Horizonte club from the Mineiro championship, according to a report.
“Honestly, I wasn’t 100%. A club as big as Cruzeiro needs a coach who is at 1000%,” Pezzolano told reporters.
In a subsequent social media post, he added: “I promise the fans that if I manage elsewhere this year, it’s not going to be in Brazil. I couldn’t trade Cruzeiro for another club. That would be a lack of respect toward the fans.” Cruzeiro registered 38 wins, 13 draws and 17 losses under Pezzolano’s stewardship.
