Shocking words about Fernando Santos. “He didn’t wash. He didn’t use deodorant”
Fernando Santos’ tenure as Poland’s national team coach was one of the worst in the team’s history. After some time, the Portuguese’s work behind the scenes is coming to light.
Fernando Santos worked in the Polish national team from January 2023 to September… of the same year. The Portuguese arrived as European champion (2016) from his time with the national team of his homeland, with Cristiano Ronaldo in the squad. However, he left in an atmosphere of great disappointment due to the disastrous results in the qualifiers for the European Championship 2024.
Fernando Santos in Poland? Shocking reports from Onet and “PS”
Santos recorded two wins (1:0 with Albania, 2:0 with the Faroe Islands) and three defeats (1:3 with the Czech Republic, 2:3 with Moldova, 0:2 with Albania) in five qualifying matches. The Portuguese player parted ways with the Polish Football Association, leaving a lot of scorched earth behind. Michał Probierz became the new coach.
After some time, more details about Santos’ behavior during his stay in Poland have emerged. Shocking words have been uttered by anonymous interviewees, quoted by “Przegląd Sportowy” and Onet. The image of the Portuguese is, to put it mildly, not very positive.
Let us add that Santos is currently the coach of the Azerbaijan national team.
– Oh come on. He didn’t wash. He didn’t use deodorant. He always had a kilo of dandruff on his service jacket. How can you take someone like that seriously? (…) He stank from a mile away. And that’s his favorite word: caralho! From Portuguese: f***, I f*****g – we read in the text by Dariusz Dobek.
UEFA Nations League: Three points after two matches for the Polish national team
Coach Michał Probierz’s team started the ongoing UEFA Nations League with a win. The Poles won 3:2 away against Scotland. A few days later, however, they had to admit the superiority of Croatia, losing 0:1 in the delegation. After two rounds, the Poles have three points in their account.
Let us recall that in October the Polish national football team will play two matches at the PGE Narodowy as part of the UEFA Nations League. The Poles will face Portugal on October 12. Three days later, the White and Reds will host the Croatians in Warsaw.
