To counter Flamengo's interest in Sampaio, Palmeiras is banking on several critical advantages: stability, compensation, and a strong supporting environment. Players and management have repeatedly lauded Sampaio’s contributions, and he enjoys direct communication with influential figures like head coach Abel Ferreira.

One of Sampaio's unique philosophies is the development of players in a manner that emphasizes creativity and autonomy. This approach aligns with his establishment of a new training facility that prioritizes unconventional methods over traditional coaching techniques. By allowing young athletes the freedom to express themselves creatively, Sampaio has contributed substantially to their early football education and success.
