Fernando Diniz Leaves Corinthians After Internacional Defeat

At Corinthians, where the pressure of the Brasileirão carries through every corner of São Paulo, Fernando Diniz has become the latest coach to leave his post after a damaging defeat to Internacional.

The news from the club

Diniz’s departure follows Corinthians’ loss to Inter, a result that left the Timão perilously close to the relegation places in Brazil’s top division.

His exit adds another name to the lengthy list of managerial changes in the Brasileirão, with Corinthians now facing a decisive period in their fight to move clear of danger.
