Fernando Diniz Fired as Brazil’s National Football Team Coach, Dorival Júnior to Replace Him

There had been tension in the air in Brazil for several weeks. Indeed, the future of Fernando Diniz seemed to be written in parentheses, even if Carlo Ancelotti had kindly declined the Selecao’s offer to stay at Real Madrid. The return of Ednaldo Rodrigues to the presidency of the CBF had further reduced the chances of seeing Diniz still on the auriverde bench for the next gatherings.

Ultimately, this return will have been fatal for the Brazilian coach. According to information from Globo, the latter would have been fired this Friday evening. Having ensured a mixed interim of six matches, the 49-year-old coach will be able to fully carry out his activities on the Fluminense bench. Ednaldo Rodrigues’ favorite to replace Diniz is current São Paulo coach Dorival Júnior, according to Brazilian reports. As a reminder, the Copa America will take place next summer.
