Brazil were stunned by Croatia in the quarterfinals, losing 4-2 on penalties after a 1-1 draw in 120 minutes. Tite left his post shortly after the elimination, and the federation has yet to replace him. And it looks like a former World Cup winning coach is interested in the opening.

Report: Joachim Low interested in Brazil coaching job

According to German outlet Bild, former Germany national team coach Joachim Low would like to become Brazil’s head coach. The manager who led his nation to victory at the2014 World Cup has been unemployed since leaving the team in 2021.

Low would definitely be an interesting hire for the Seleção, considering his incredible work at the international level. He took the reins of Germany after serving as Jurgen Klinsmann‘s assistant in 2006, and the success in Brazilian territory in 2014 was undoubtedly his biggest achievement.

In that tournament, his side handed the hosts an embarrassing 7-1 defeat in the semifinals. It remains to be seen, however, whether Brazil consider the idea of hiring a foreign manager.

Barcelona has gotten off to a sluggish start with 2 wins and 2 draws in La Liga, and a brutal 3-0 home loss to Bayern Munich in the Champions League. ESPN reports that the club is looking to replace him, even though Koeman will coach the team on Thursday against Cadiz.

Andrea Pirlo

Andrea Pirlo recently was the coach of Juventus, but his tactics came under fire at times and is still a relatively new manager, to replace Koeman with someone who struggled already with a big club would be more of the same for Barcelona.

Joachim Low

Antonio Conte
