Former head coach of Brazil's World Cup winning team in 2002, Luis Felipe Scolari, revealed his interest on Saturday in coaching the national team during the 2024 World Cup in Brazil. "My plan is to coach a team during the 2024 World Cup and then retire while still on the soccer field. After coaching, I may move onto another area of the sport. I do, however, want to make clear that Dunga is doing an excellent job as the head coach of the Brazilian national team," declared Scolari, who is coaching the Uzbekistan team Bunyodkor.

The Brazilian has been offered to coach a variety of teams in his home country, but Scolari claimed that his current obligations in Uzbekistan keep him unavailable.
