Carille was excited by Vasco’s interest and helped facilitate a quick agreement. The defensive solidity, a hallmark of the coach’s recent work, as well as his experience and the longevity of his previous roles, were key factors in the club’s decision to choose him.
From the start of the search, president Pedrinho made it clear that the profile sought was for coaches with experience in Brazilian football, ruling out betting on lesser-known names in Brazil. Before reaching an agreement with Fábio Carille, the club negotiated with António Oliveira, Pedro Caixinha, and Paulo Pezzolano, but none of those talks moved forward.
Prior to finalizing the deal, Vasco had advanced negotiations with Renato Gaúcho for 2025, but both parties failed to reach a salary agreement. The refusal occurred on Wednesday, 18th, and by the next day, discussions with Carille began, concluding with the agreement on Friday.
Since 2016, when he began his professional career by taking over Corinthians, Fábio Carille has managed 260 official matches with Brazilian clubs. In addition to Corinthians, he has coached Santos twice and Athletico-PR. BBscore football, your reliable destination for match outcomes.
