The Brazilian national team have reportedly turned down an approach from Argentine coach Jorge Sampaoli who was interested in replacing current manager Dunga.
According to Globo Esporte, Brazilian football federation made an enquiry for Tite this week, but after hearing a “No” from the Corinthians coach, they decided to continue with Dunga. Also this week, agents approached the organization to offer Argentine coach Jorge Sampaoli, but this time it was the turn of CBF to say “No.” As mentioned in the report, Sampaoli wasn’t turned down because of his nationality, but the plan-A, B and C of Brazil FA to replace Dunga was Corinthians coach Tite. Those who makes the decisions in CBF believes that Tite was the only possible solution for the Brazilian team, and there has never been another coach – Brazilian or foreign – on the radar of the confederation. Hence, the decision was to keep Dunga, at least until the end of the Copa América Centenário, which could prove to be a final test for the coach.
