After Flamengo opted for Sampaoli, the Portuguese coach is positioned as a possible new Brazilian coach
The CBF insists on Carlo Ancelotti but the option of Jorge Jesus, who will leave Fenerbahçe, is also highly regarded
Jorge Jesus has not signed for Flamengo because his current team, Fenerbahçe, was not about to let their coach go in the decisive stretch of the season. And the cariocas, who did not want to wait, ended up opting for Jorge Sampaoli, a trainee with a great reputation in Brazil and who has signed until December 2024.
The signing of ‘Sampa’ by Mengao (the former Sevilla player was presented this Monday in Rio de Janeiro) can generate a domino effect, because the figure of Jorge Jesus has now won many more integers within the leadership of the Confederação Brasileira de Futebol (CBF)as pointed out by the Brazilian channel Sportv.
The Portuguese coach, who won five titles with Flamengo between 2019 and 2020, has already announced that he will leave Turkey once this season ends, which would fit into the CBF schedule to be able to sign as the new Brazilian coach as of July 1. In this way, he would complete the entire cycle of official matches for the Seleçao that will begin with the South American Qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup.
His name is liked, although the first option is still Carlo Ancelotti. For it, the CBF hopes that he will not revalidate the Champions League title and? Florentino Perez I ended up dismissing him. Because, in the event of a continental victory for the white team Carletto He will continue in Chamartín where he would fulfill his current contract that expires on June 30, 2024.
And the Italian, every time he is asked about Brazil at a press conference, insists that his wish is to stay at Real Madrid.
To all this, it should be noted that from England it was pointed out that José Mourinho would be another of the names that the Confederaçao is considering. In his favor would be the fact that he speaks Portuguese… the same characteristic that Jorge Jesus has.
