The 43-year-old Paz was responsible for signing players like Zakaria Labyad and Jesse Lingard, as well as the highly debated contract extension of Memphis Depay. His departure comes after a meeting between the club's hard core fans and president Osmar Stabile, who demanded Paz's departure. The fans' discontent was partly due to the team's poor performance, with Corinthians losing eight consecutive matches and drawing against Vitória on Tuesday. The players' group was also unhappy about unpaid portrait rights of reportedly 5 million euros. The club claims that the decision to fire Paz was made in mutual agreement.
