CEO Cruzeiro considers time fluctuation “predictable”; see explanation

Cruzeiro CEO Alexandre Mattos stated that the irregular sequence of results during the season was predictable. The director explained the reasons for considering the sequence of games with low performance in the season as “pure”, even before the 1-0 defeat to Fluminense.

– Natural. Predictable. Anyone who thought differently was wrong. Any team that changes a lot, that changes management, technical command, athletes, employees, is bound to have fluctuations. Cruzeiro, even so, remains at the top (attain Brazilian). They are in the South American final, their first game at home, who knows, maybe they will advance and try to compete for the title – said the CEO during an event in Belo Horizonte, last Thursday.

Businessman Pedro Lourenço acquired the club more than five months ago, buying 90% of SAF shares from Ronaldo Fenômeno. Since then, Cruzeiro has been going through changes on and off the field. The team made an investment of R$200 million in the market to change the team. He brought in seven players and released another nine, including loans, terminations and sales.
