‘Felipao’ questions Lucho’s resume, who is, right now, the great favorite to assume the Brazilian team
Scolari, who was the last coach to win a World Cup with Brazil, believes that it is more feasible to bet on a South American coach
Luis Enrique’s candidacy to assume the position of the new Brazilian coach is beginning to win detractors. The first to position himself against the former Barça and La Roja coach was Luiz Felipe Scolari, currently the technical director of Ath. Paranaense after retiring as a coach at the end of last year.
The opinion of Felipao, who was the last coach to win a World Cup with Brazil, is that Lucho lacks a curriculum to be able to lead the Seleçao: “What has he won? He has to have performance. He is very good, but he has lost everything. What does it mean that he is good? Mourinho won everything”shot at an event.
Scolari has overlooked the brilliant stage of the Asturian coach at the helm of Barça. In 2015, he won the second treble in the history of the Blaugrana club (something that is still going on in Madrid).
That year, he did not repeat the perfect season, as he had done Pep Guardiola in 2009, due to the controversial refereeing that Barça suffered in the Spanish Super Cup, won by Ath.Bilbao de ernesto valverde. In the end, there were five titles out of six possible: Champions League, League, Copa del Rey, European Super Cup and Club World Cup.
In the 2015-16 season, Lucho added a double with Barça (League and Copa del Rey), plus the Spanish Super Cup. And he ended his triumphant cycle on the Camp Nou bench in the 2016-17 campaign, with his third consecutive Copa del Rey.
Therefore, in three seasons directing his Barça he raised up to nine titles. Since his departure, the Blaugrana club has not managed to link such a winning three-year period. All Barcelona fans know that he was the last coach to win the Champions League.
FIGHT, OBJECTIVE NUMBER 1 OF THE CBF
SPORT was the one who revealed that Luis Enrique is the best positioned to take the reins of the Seleçao. The president of the Confederaçao, Ednaldo Rodrigues, plans to travel to Europe in the coming weeks to finalize the signing of the new coach of the ‘verdeamarela’, who will be a foreigner, breaking the tradition in force until now.
“If I can direct other teams, why couldn’t they? If they have quality, they have to be our coach. What I think is that it would be easier to hire a South American than a European”exposed Scolari, who days ago defended the candidacy of the Portuguese Abel Ferreiracurrent coach of Palmeiras, count has twice won the Copa Libertadores de América (2020 and 2021), the Brasileirao 2022 and the Copa do Brasil 2020 among other titles.
