Tite completes his first week at the helm of Flamengo this Monday (16), the date on which he will be presented and speak to the press for the first time. It's a short time, but some changes in the training and routine at Ninho do Urubu are noticeable.

After five days of activity (from Tuesday to Saturday), the work draws attention to the human side and the close relationship with cast and board, in addition to defining the club's main objective in 2023.


Tite's first days at Ninho do Urubu were marked by the difference in profile between him and Sampaoli, his predecessor. The new coach made good impressions, mainly due to his kindness in simple situations, such as saying "good morning" and wanting to get to know all the CT employees.


"He is a great leader, with character and a very human side. developed. You could already see his concern with everyone, with everyone's human side throughout the first contact. With all the staff here at CT. He made a point of greeting everyone and meeting with all areas",  said Bruno Spindel, Flamengo's football director.

First requests to the cast and board

The closest contact also characterizes the beginning of Tite's relationship with the cast. In the first contact with the players, the coach also made a kind of request: the combination of competence with education to achieve the club's objectives.

- He manages to keep all the players motivated. This is very important. He can motivate even those who haven't been playing much. He manages to keep everyone motivated, 100% for when they need to get the job done. This is his greatest virtue. Everyone is confident and prepared for the opportunity - said Everton Cebolinha, to FlaTV.

The first week was also marked by meetings with Marcos Braz, Flamengo's VP of football. Methodology processes and team training programming were some of the topics. Tite also took the opportunity to ask for special attention to the Ninho lawn, which has already received an intervention in recent days.
