Alexandre Santos departs Petro de Luanda after three triumphant seasons
Petro de Luanda has announced the departure of their head coach, Alexandre Santos, after three highly successful seasons. The decision to part ways comes following yet another Angolan championship title for the club. The separation was initiated by Santos himself, who cited professional reasons for his departure.
Santos, who has been at the helm of Petro de Luanda for three seasons, has overseen a period of remarkable success.
Under his guidance, the team clinched three consecutive Girabola titles, cementing their dominance in Angolan football.
In addition to their league triumphs, Petro de Luanda also secured two Angola Cups and a Super Cup.
The club’s impressive performances extended to the continental stage, where they consistently qualified for the group stages of the CAF Champions League and reached the semi-finals of the African Football League.
“During the period in which he led the team, coach Alexandre Santos demonstrated exemplary commitment and tireless dedication.
Under his command, Petro de Luanda enjoyed three memorable seasons, marked by notable sporting successes,” stated the club in their official press release.
The statement reflects the high regard in which Santos is held by the club and its supporters.
The club expressed its deep gratitude to Santos for his significant contributions, emphasizing his professionalism, leadership, and impact on the team’s growth and success.
“We would like to express our gratitude to Alexandre Santos for his professionalism, leadership, and contribution to the growth and success of our club.
We wish you the best in all your future projects, both professional and personal,” the club concluded.
Santos will lead Petro de Luanda for the final time in their upcoming match against Bravos Maquis on the last day of the season.
His departure marks the end of a successful chapter for the club, and the search for a new head coach will undoubtedly be crucial as Petro de Luanda looks to build on the solid foundation laid by Santos.
The next steps for Alexandre Santos remain to be seen, but his tenure at Petro de Luanda will be remembered as a period of sustained excellence and growth.
The club’s supporters will hope that his successor can continue the legacy of success and lead the team to new heights.
