Mamelodi Sundowns coach Miguel Cardoso on his exit rumours: I knew the club was not going to let go of me but this was created by the media
Miguel Cardoso disclosed he has never felt Mamelodi Sundowns will let him go.
The Sundowns coach’s confidence is high after guiding the Brazilians to their second Caf Champions League final successive seasons.
Sundowns won their two-legged semi-final with a 2-0 aggregate score with Columbian striker Brayan Leone scoring both goals.
This feat sees Cardoso’s confidence reach astronomical levels.
“Those kinds of people don’t make my life; I live from the energy that comes from those who are important. And it’s you journalist saying, ‘we didn’t know if you would stay’, I knew that I would stay, my assistant coaches, my club, management, and my players, we all knew I would stay,” Cardoso said.
“The ones that wanted me out are probably the ones that don’t have the capacity and power to decide, but look, I don’t take this moment of reaching the final as an individual achievement. I look at this moment as a club and players’ achievement; it’s their job and a high level of commitment, not mine. I just try to facilitate and not complicate things. And that’s it, I live in peace, I’m already 54 years old, and I have to enjoy life.
“One day, this life will end for everybody. I don’t depend on my day-to-day work. I depend on what I’ve done for many years, and my life is very stable. So I need to enjoy life, and that’s what brings me peace of existing as a human being.”
