The Brazilian Football Federation (CBF) is making headlines after parting ways with Dorival Junior, following a disappointing 4-1 loss to Argentina. Now, they are reportedly setting their sights on one of the most successful managers in modern football—Pep Guardiola.

Guardiola on Brazil’s Radar

Dorival Junior’s tenure as Brazil’s head coach lasted just over a year, yielding seven wins, three losses, and six draws. While his record was not disastrous, it fell short of the expectations surrounding the Brazilian national team. As a result, the CBF is now seeking a high-profile name to lead the squad into the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Reports suggest that Guardiola is on a three-man shortlist, alongside Al Hilal’s Jorge Jesus and Real Madrid’s Carlo Ancelotti. Spanish outlet Marca has claimed that Brazil is eager to secure the Manchester City boss, a move that could signal a shift in the nation’s footballing philosophy.

Is Guardiola Ready for an International Role?

Guardiola has long been linked to national team jobs, though he has never managed at the international level. In an interview with ESPN Brasil last year, he admitted, “

A national team. I would like to train a national team for a World Cup or a European Championship. I would like that.”

However, leaving Manchester City now would be challenging, as he extended his contract until 2027.

Although City has faced some struggles this season, Guardiola remains committed to his project in England. Convincing him to depart early would require a significant effort from the CBF.

Alternative Options for Brazil

While Guardiola may be Brazil’s dream candidate, other options are being considered. Ancelotti has already dismissed speculation, stating that he intends to honor his contract with Real Madrid. Meanwhile, Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus has reportedly expressed his willingness to take on the role.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Jesus has given his initial availability, making him a more realistic short-term solution. However, Brazil has yet to make an official approach.

What’s Next for the Seleção?

With the FIFA World Cup qualifiers resuming in June, Brazil will need to act fast. Their upcoming fixture against Ecuador on June 4 will be crucial, as they currently sit fourth in the South American standings.

CBF president Ednaldo Rodrigues has dismissed speculation, saying, “

From now on, we will look for a replacement. What was said about there being contact did not go through the CBF management. In due course, we will inform the replacement.”

Regardless of who takes charge, the decision will shape Brazil’s path to the 2026 World Cup. Whether it’s Guardiola, Jesus, or another candidate, the next manager will carry the immense responsibility of bringing the Seleção back to its former glory.
