The businessman confirmed his friendship with the Al-Nassr coach, who is already from Saudi Arabia. For him, there is no way to judge Castro's decision to leave the Arab team. + Presented at Botafogo, Bruno Lage plans a 'peaceful transition' to keep the club at the top this season - If Cristiano Ronaldo called me and said: "Take a plane to Riyadh", I would probably go too. I have never treated a coach as a coach. He was a partner. We arrived here together and I speak to him as a friend. When the Saudis arrived, I knew the danger because I saw the role of Saudi Arabia's money in the world and in sport - and he emphasized: - As the owner, I thought “how can it come out on the table?”. As a friend, I told him that I would like to leave because of money and opportunity – he added. Although he regretted Castro's departure, Textor began looking for a new place at Alvinegro. - It's not okay, I had a lot of hope in the locker room. I told her she's beautiful and I'm not firing her. Every coach grows differently. Caçapa arrives, looks at Carlos Alberto and asks: "Why isn't he playing?" Change can be good.

Bruno Lage wishes luck to Cláudio Caçapa, who will lead the team.
