Brazil are in need of a new head coach ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and one of the most decorated coaches in soccer could be first in line for the job.
Dorival Junior lasted just over a year as Brazil's head coach before the 62-year-old was fired back in March. Under his leadership, the Seleção crashed out of Copa América 2024 in the quarterfinals, struggled in their 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers and most recently, suffered an embarrassing 4–1 defeat to an Argentina side without Lionel Messi.
