Can Roger Machado go to the selection?
The CBF prioritizes a foreign technician to command Brazil in continuity in the 2026 World Cup cycle. Names like Jorge Jesus, Abel Ferreira, Ancelotti and José Mourinho are the entity’s favorites. For now, there are no negotiations with Roger Machado. He has a contract with Colorado until the end of the season and negotiates renewal for another year.
“I will confirm to you four names on the CBF table.” The four names are favorite and are being evaluated. I have for myself that their favorite is Jorge Jesus. The main name, the most plausible is Jesus. But besides Jesus, there is Abel Ferreira, Carlos Ancelotti and the news, which has not yet been spoken, José Mourinho joined the list of names evaluated – said André Rizek, journalist of ‘SporTV’.

– Getting to wish the foreigner does not come out of nowhere. We didn’t ask for foreigners. I would like to see a Brazilian, but I am not against (foreigners). Who speaks (from foreigners in selection) is the external environment. We were in other selections as well. But a five -time world champion country has coaches that could occupy. It was older than not served, the younger ones came. The youngest did not serve, the foreigners came. As a coach, I guide to strengthen my category. We owe nothing to coaches from other countries, ”Roger said.
