Dorival's chair is seriously creaking, Carlo Ancelotti is back in the spotlight
Brazil wants a new head coach after the defeat against Argentina 4-1 in Monumental Stadium. The italian coach is number one candidate.
After the 4-1 defeat of the Brazilian national team by Argentina, the coach, Dorival Junior, is in the air. The major media outlets in the country of "coffee" have already started talking about a change of technical leadership and his possible replacements. At the moment, there are three candidates, with No. 1 Carlo Ancelotti as the main one.
The pressure on the technical leadership of the Brazilian national team was already at... dangerous levels and things got even worse for Dorival Junior after the defeat by Argentina at the "Monumental".
The Brazilian coach is in a dire position after the Seleção's "patatrak", which was the heaviest defeat by the Albiceleste since
1959.
The people of the federation have already begun consultations for the next day, which according to the Brazilian media is extremely likely to find the Seleção with a new coach. As reported by "Globo Esporte", the question now is who the successor will be and when he will be able to announce him. Given that this year's season will drag on a little longer than usual for some teams due to the maiden Club World Cup. The candidate names, however, have already been known and Carlo Ancelotti has long been at the top of the list.
The Italian coach is the undisputed No. 1 in the mind of the president of the federation, Ednaldo Rodríguez, and he sees the prospects of the Brazilian national team positively. His contract at Real Madrid ends in 2026, but for now it is uncertain whether he will see it out.
Beyond that, the name that has been collecting points recently is Flamengo coach and former Seleção international, Filipe Luis. The other two candidates at the moment are the former PAOK coach and "architect" of Palmeiras of the successive Libertadores, Abel Ferreira, as well as the experienced Portuguese Jorge Jesus, who coaches Al Hilal.
