Atlético Paranaense’s manager Ricardo Drubscky has been sacked following his team’s draw with Grêmio on Saturday.
The Curitiba-based team are currently in 19th place in the league, having won only one match in six games, despite the board’s high expectations.
Ricardo Drubscky is quoted by Globo Esporte as saying: “I would highlight the fact we played beautiful football, favoring a passing game, and trying to play an efficient attacking style.
Unfortunately we could not get results in the first games in the league, but this is football, we don’t always win when we want.
We have to accept how things are and keep working the same way, seeking to improve those ratings.
The manager has added: “Atlético Paranaense was a jump in my career, and a great opportunity, where I could improve as a professional.
I am ending this stage of my career satisfied for having stayed for a considerable time at the club, 13 months, which is a record at the club in the last 10 years.”
