Wallim Vasconcellos, in turn, was the most direct in relation to Tite's situation, stating that, if elected, the contract of the coach will not be renewed. Maurício Gomes de Mattos adopted a more evasive stance, without committing himself. Finally, Delair Dumbrosck conditioned Tite's continuation on the results achieved by the end of the season.
Tite's contractTite's contract with Flamengo runs until December of this year, the which puts the decision on its renewal in the hands of the club's next president. The termination fine is calculated based on the technical committee's monthly salary, which is around R$1 million, multiplied by the number of months remaining in the contract.

For now, I don’t have a definitive position on this matter.” (Interview with the Jannuzzi & Abuzze podcast).
Luiz Eduardo Baptista (BAP):“Given the circumstances that Flamengo faces, it would be deeply unfair to evaluate Tite's performance in a negative way .

Wallim Vasconcellos:“Particularly, I don’t like Tite’s style of play. His contract ends at the end of the year and I don't intend to renew it. Football needs to move into the 21st century, and I don’t believe that Tite is aligned with what we imagine for Flamengo from 2025 onwards.” (Interview with Lance newspaper).
Maurício Gomes de Mattos (MGM):At campaign events, Maurício Gomes de Mattos is usually evasive about Tite's stay, stating that he intends to put together a professional structure to define the ideal coach for the beginning of his management in 2025.

Flamengo has not been able to present good football for some time and doubts about Tite's work have already begun to emerge. For journalist and commentator Gian Oddi, the criticism took a long time to appear, and there is an "unusual generosity" towards the commander.
For the commentator, if it were another coach in Tite's place, without making a star cast surrender, the position of coach would already be in danger and even vacant a long time ago. The journalist still uses Vanderlei Luxemburgo as a comparison to describe the situation.
“We are in the ninth month of this year, Tite started his work last year, and I keep imagining if Vanderlei Luxemburgo was the coach of Flamengo, how much he would get beaten. So I think there is a generosity with Tite that is absolutely unusual”, analyzed Gian Oddi.
Tite will complete one year leading Flamengo, but he continues to experience moments of uncertainty. Even though Rubro-Negro is alive in the three competitions it competes in, the coach is unable to extract better football from the squad, and even with the absences, Gian Oddi says that the coach has to show urgent service.
“ Enough, I'm not saying that Tite should be fired. But you need to look at Flamengo's squad, and I know that the discount has to exist, just look at who is outside Flamengo's team at the moment. But he has a lot of allowance to work with, and of course, he had a lot of problems, but Flamengo goes there and signs the full-back who played with the Juventus shirt for the last ten years. So, we're talking about guys at a very high level”, commented Oddi following criticism from the fans about the football presented.
Since Tite arrived at Mais Querido, in October 2023, he led Rubro-Negro in 67 games, with 40 wins, 12 draws and 15 defeats. In total, 106 goals were scored and 48 conceded.
