Corinthians manager - about Moraes: "I prefer not to call him by his name, he was a coward and above all a liar"

Corinthians football manager Alessandro Nunez has commented on the expulsion of Junior Moraes, who later expressed his desire to terminate his contract with the club and receive compensation of $750,000.

"On this athlete I will be very frank. I must apologise to the Corinthians fans for this unfortunate transfer we made. It takes courage and personality to wear a Corinthians jersey and the one I prefer not to call by name was a coward and above all a liar.

I am sorry that our fans saw him in a Corinthians shirt. We care about the players who will play for our team and we respect everything our club represents: strength, humility, determination. That's the end of the matter. We won't talk about it anymore," Núñez said for ESPN.
