The Brazilian National Team is adrift again. This is because the former commander Dorival Júnior was fired last Friday (28) and now the CBF is looking for a replacement who can return good football to the five-time world champion Brazilian team.
In view of this, the board of directors already has a few names in its sights to replace the former Flamengo coach. One of the most highly rated names is also a former Flamengo coach, the Portuguese Jorge Jesus, from Al-Hilal. According to information from the Portuguese portal A Bola PT, the CBF is willing to pay approximately €5 million (around R$30 million) to the Arab club to have the coach released on April 1st and has already signaled the Arab team.
However, the Portuguese source also states that this value could drop if JJ only leaves in May. However, it is worth remembering that the Brazilian National Team returns to the field in June for two matches. The team faces Paraguay and Ecuador in June.
According to the website, negotiations could take place in the coming weeks. The coach is plan A, according to ESPN, and time could be an ally. This is how the CBF sees the situation to reach an agreement with a new manager.
The mister wants the Brazilian National Team
In an interview with Portugal's Channel 11, the Portuguese coach praised Ruben Amorim for his move to Manchester United. "I understand him perfectly, because this year I had my dream and I didn't have the courage to leave. He did," said the coach.
That dream was the Brazilian national team, for which the coach was not available in 2024 because he wanted to fight for titles in Saudi Arabia. Now the reality is different and both parties know that this is the last opportunity to unite this desire of Jesus and the CBF.

The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) has appointed Minas Gerais referee Felipe Fernandes de Lima to officiate the match between Santos and Flamengo. This will be Felipe's seventh match in the 2025 Brasileirão Betano, his third for Santos and his first for Flamengo in the competition.
