The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) is considering a new candidate for the position of head coach of the Brazil national team — Italian Roberto Mancini. This was reported by Goal.com.
Details: It is reported that the coach's agents have proposed his candidacy to the federation's leadership, and the specialist himself has expressed his readiness to lead the Seleção. Mancini's last job was with the Saudi Arabia national team, from which he was dismissed in October last year. Prior to that, he successfully managed the Italy national team, with whom he became the European champion in 2020.
Reminder: At the end of March, the CBF dismissed Dorival Junior following unsatisfactory results: only one victory in the last four World Cup 2026 qualifying matches and a painful 1-4 defeat by Argentina. Besides Mancini, other notable candidates to succeed Junior include renowned coaches such as Manuel Pellegrini, Carlo Ancelotti, Jürgen Klopp, and Jorge Jesus.
