Overview

  • Atlético Mineiro announced Jorge Sampaoli as head coach and stated he has signed through the end of 2027.
  • He replaces Cuca, who was dismissed after a poor run of results.
  • Galo sits on 24 points in 14th place in the league, with Bolívar awaiting in the Copa Sudamericana quarterfinals on September 17 and 24.
  • Sampaoli returns for a second spell after leading the club in 2020–2021, when he won the Campeonato Mineiro.
