«Petit not only won't leave, he's never been about to leave»

The president of SAD Belenenses, Rui Pedro Soares, guaranteed this Tuesday that the coach of the first team, Petit, will not leave his position.

training this Tuesday, as Maisfotebol reported, was canceled, but the leader of the blues assured, in a press conference, this afternoon, that this decision was taken by Petit and given the rest of the team and all the staff around it, in the case of physiotherapists and wardrobes.

«Petit not only won’t go out, but he’s never been there. Petit has never been on the table and we will, with those here, in the next three weeks, have all the conditions to return to being the team we have always been», said Rui Pedro Soares, to journalists, in a videoconference, before to clarify his position on the cancellation of this morning’s training.

«I had a conversation with Petit the Sunday after the game, another one on Sunday night, yesterday morning in person and the media found out why it was at Jamor, in a more or less public place: we went to say goodbye to the Team Manager who we had, who had an excellent job offer and left. We spoke yesterday afternoon at the end of the day about the U23 game. This morning I spoke to Petit and this afternoon I spoke to Petit», he began by exposing.

«If training was cancelled, it was canceled by decision of Petit, to attend to a simple thing: when, at the end of a working week, there are days off, the days off – if we think about the players and coaches – are calculated between the last and the first training session. But there is a staff who work around the team that has one less day off in every two. They can’t go off time when practice ends: they have another four to five hours to go and, before the next practice, they start four to five hours earlier. These people, physiotherapists and wardrobes, this month had a great period without days off and it was important to take time off on Monday and today, Tuesday – the under-23 team is also off today and – and that is why it was cancelled. So there is no doubt in the coming weeks: next Saturday and Sunday will be off for both teams. We got that right. We play at Cradle for the Cup of Portugal and as we only play with Boavista on a Monday [25], we will have three days off between Berço and Boavista. It was just because of that», he concluded.

«Perfection was if the president was blind and the coach deaf»

Asked if he could guarantee that Petit will be coach of the blue team until the end of 2021/2022, Rui Pedro Soares stressed that he is “happy” with the coach and that you can «guarantee what just depends» on you.

«The issue of results… often coaches are fired after bad results, but it’s not because of bad results: many Sometimes the relationship between coach and president is so bad, that the president waits two to three games for him to have bad results, to fire him. This also happens. During these 21 months it has crossed my mind several times that perhaps Petit should leave, but it is something that quickly ceases to be in my mind. I believe he also often thinks that it is best to leave. Between a coach and a president, for things to be perfect, the president had to be blind and the coach had to be deaf. I have an excellent relationship with Petit, the best possible. We’ve been together for 21 months and I’m sure we’ll be together longer», he said.

« FIFA impediment? In addition to the window being closed, we are not interested in signing up»

The SAD of Belenenses

is prevented by FIFA from registering new players in the next three transfer windows due to a doubt of 300 thousand euros to the Maputo Sports League, from Mozambique.

Questioned by Maisfootball about In the situation, Rui Pedro Soares did not clarify whether the debt is paid at this point – something that the source of the blues guaranteed that it would be done before January 2022. «The FIFA decision was an impediment from January 1, 2022. the window is closed, we are not interested in registering new players», replied the manager.
