Part 4/6:
Dinis’ previous tenure with the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) adds a layer of complexity to his current association with Cruzeiro. When he left the CBF, some interpreted his actions as a desire to elevate his career and not to clash with the governing body. However, this relationship seems to undermine the firm stance that is typically expected from a coach of his caliber.
His experiences at the CBF, where he felt undermined after being dismissed just before a couple of friendly matches, further fuel the debate about his resilience and approach to conflict. Many argue that he should have been more assertive in addressing his grievances with the CBF’s decision-making at that time.
