Juan Pablo Vojvoda is no longer the coach of Santos.
The 51-year-old Argentine coach left the command of Peixe early this Thursday morning (19).
The decision was made after the defeat to Internacional at Vila Belmiro.
His contract was set to last until December of this year.
The 2026 season for Santos includes four wins, six draws, and six losses.
The team reached the quarter-finals of the Paulistão by qualifying in the last round but was eliminated by Novorizontino.
And they are having a poor performance in the Brasileirão. They have only six points and could enter the relegation zone (Z-4) at the end of the seventh round.
Emotional Salvation in BR-2025
Vojvoda was announced by Santos on August 22 of last year.
After a failed negotiation with Sampaoli, he was chosen to replace Cl̩ber Xavier Рwho was dismissed after a 6-0 loss to Vasco at MorumBIS.
He came from a long and successful stint leading Fortaleza.
The mission was to keep Peixe in the top tier of the Brasileirão.
There were only three victories in the first 13 games – and only against the capital’s rivals.
But the comeback that started against Palmeiras, in a postponed match of the 13th round, was enough for Santos to secure their place in the top tier by accumulating 47 points.
