Champion of Conmebol Libertadores and Recopa Sul-Americana with Fluminense, coach Fernando Diniz has open talks to stay at the club for longer. This is because the Tricolor board and the coach have ongoing conversations to extend the commander’s contract, which currently has a contract until the end of 2024.

The idea of Fluminense is to sign a contract extension until December 2025. According to President Mário Bittencourt, the conversation at this point is to find a common denominator on the financial issue so that the signature can take place.
– Yes, it is our desire to renew (with Fernando Diniz) until the end of 2025. We have been talking to him since the beginning of the year about this possibility. I believe that at the beginning of April, before the second, third round of the Libertadores, we should reach a common denominator and sign this contract extension – said the president, to geat the Super Fut Summit event.
Internally, Fernando Diniz continues to have high morale within Fluminense and with the athletes on the squad. The fall in the semi-final of the Campeonato Carioca did little to affect the confidence of those around him. It is remembered that, in a period of 11 months, he won three titles with Tricolor, two of which were unprecedented.
On the rise after the Conmebol Libertadores and Recopa Sul-Americana titles, Fernando Diniz was approached by Corinthians while he was at Fluminense, but decided to stay at the club despite receiving a more advantageous salary offer.
