Palmeiras 1996 football season
The 1996 season is the 82nd season in Palmeiras's existence, and their 82nd in Brazil's first division. The club competed in Campeonato Paulista , Copa do Brasil , Copa CONMEBOL and Campeonato Brasileiro Série A .
Summary [ ]
During January the club reinforced the squad with central back Sandro Blum from Juventude, offensive Midfielder Djalminha from Guarani FC and left-back Júnior from Esporte Clube Vitoria . The team won the Campeonato Paulista playing the best campaign in the professional history of that competition. [1] Managed by Wanderley Luxemburgo the team grabbed 83 points out of 90 possible, and scoring 102 goals in 30 matches.[2]
In Copa do Brasil the squad advanced to semifinals and defeated 1995 Copa Libertadores incumbent champions Gremio . Shockingly, the heavy-favourite club lost the 1996 Copa do Brasil Final against Cruzeiro at Parque Antartica playing without two key players: defensive Midfielder Flavio Conceicao and Forward Müller .[3]
During summer, the club transferred out Rivaldo to Deportivo La Coruña (after the Spanish club paid $7,0 million),[4] Amaral to Parma and Müller to São Paulo following a contract-dispute[5] (loaned from Kashiwa Reysol 50% co-owner of contract ended on 9 June) losing offensive ground for the upcoming Campeonato Brasileiro being early eliminated by Gremio in Quarterfinals .
Rivaldo , Cafu , Marcos, Junior, Roque Júnior, and Luizao were called up to have been playing in the Brazil national football team managed by Luiz Felipe Scolari to win the 2002 FIFA World Cup Final .
