The record world champion rumbles towards World Cup 2026. Legend Cafu finds clear words in Sport1.
The nerves are bare with record world champion Brazil, which is still standing without a coach.
“I hope that there will be a solution as soon as possible. As a five-time world champion, we cannot be long in this situation,” criticizes record player Cafu (142 caps, 4 World Cup participation, 3 finals, 2 titles) in conversation with Sport1 : “This lack of organization is very bad for Brazilian football.”
Ancelotti soon Brazil’s national coach?
Reals Madrid’s coach Carlo Ancelotti is the hottest candidate for the prominent post, with whom the national association is said to be in advanced talks, according to The Athletic .
Cafu, long -time captain of the Selecao, says on the sidelines of the Laureus World Sports Awards in Madrid: “I don’t know who the association will choose. Ancelotti is certainly one of the interesting names.”
World Cup qualification: Brazil far behind Argentina
The qualification for the World Cup finals as a fourth of the table for six tickets to be awarded further within reach, but the gap to the leaders and neighbors of Argentina is massive with ten points-not a good feeling for the proud Brazilians, especially after the triumph of the Albiceleste in Qatar.
“Of course they are our biggest rival,” Cafu also makes no secret of the bitter competition: “So Brazil will do everything to get the title back.”
Will the injured Neymar once again play a major role? “The answer to this can only give himself,” says Cafu.
There are many open questions that accompany the record champion on the way to the World Cup.
