Current Information
During the end of his career, Edmundo had good performances, although he was not physically so strong as in the mid-90s. That is why he alternated great appearances with bad ones. Even though, his football skills were fundamental to Figuerense avoid the relegation in the Campeonato Brasileiro da Serie A de 2005 and Palmeiras the relegation in Campeonato Brasileiro da Serie A de 2006.
He was the main footballer of Palmeiras (along with Valdivia and Marcos) in the 2007 season, but his contract was not renewed. There are two versions of this fact: according to the "official" one, his salary was too high for his irregular performances. But it is more possible that the actual reason was that Caio Júnior, who was favorable to this permanence, was sacked and Vanderlei Luxemburgo, who has personal problems with Edmundo, was hired.
In January 2008, Edmundo returned to Vasco da Gama. Unfortunately, he could not do anything when Vasco da Gama was relegated to Campeonato Brasileiro da Série B de 2009.
In the middle of 2009, he became a football pundit in Rede TV!. In the beginning of 2010, Rede Bandeirantes hired him. He was part of the broadcaster's jornalstics team in the 2010 FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro 2012 coverages.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or information:
“It is a quite remarkable fact that the great religions of the most civilized peoples are more deeply fraught with sadness than the simpler beliefs of earlier societies. This certainly does not mean that the current of pessimism is eventually to submerge the other, but it proves that it does not lose ground and that it does not seem destined to disappear.”
—Emile Durkheim (1858–1917)
“Many more children observe attitudes, values and ways different from or in conflict with those of their families, social networks, and institutions. Yet today’s young people are no more mature or capable of handling the increased conflicting and often stimulating information they receive than were young people of the past, who received the information and had more adult control of and advice about the information they did receive.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)
