The Impact of Portuguese Coaches on Brazilian Soccer

Abstract

Portuguese coaches have had a significant impact on Brazilian football in recent years. The success factors are associated with the fact that on the one hand they share the Portuguese language, which facilitates communication with the players. On the other hand, in universities, Portuguese coaches receive solid training that includes psychology, physical, technical and tactical aspects. The innovations that these coaches provide make them stand out in local and international championships in which Brazilian teams such as Flamengo and Palmeiras participate.
