According to Hernan, Oscar has already informed close people that he will end his career.
The decision comes after the player fainted in November during exams at the Barra Funda training center.
Also according to ESPN, Oscar was without a pulse for 50 seconds on that day.
The midfielder was diagnosed with vasovagal syncope, which results in a loss of consciousness due to decreased blood pressure and heart rate.
He was hospitalized for five days at the Albert Einstein Hospital in São Paulo.
The idea of the Tricolor management is to include Oscar behind the scenes of the club.
In the current season, the midfielder scored two goals and provided five assists in 21 games.
