Dorival Junior will continue as the head coach of the Brazilian national team until at least the 2026 World Cup, as confirmed by the country's football federation president. Despite Brazil's early exit from the Copa América tournament, the decision has been made to retain Dorival in his role.
The team faced criticism following their quarterfinal defeat to Uruguay, where they were eliminated in a penalty shootout after a goalless draw. Brazil's performance in the tournament was lackluster, with only one victory in the group stage.
