After finishing the world championship with humiliation, its host Brazil is looking for someone to replace strategist Luis Felipe Scolari in the position of head coach.
Foreign media's favorite for the position is considered to be Dunga, who has already coached Brazilians in the past, and it is speculated that he will be officially appointed to the post as early as Tuesday.
Prior to this, Dunga coached the Brazilian national team from 2006 to 2010, during which time the Brazilians won the South American Championship and the Confederations Cup.
As a player, Dunga was also the captain of the team that won the World Cup in the United States in 1994.
In his first tenure as coach, Dunga achieved 42 victories with the Brazilian national team, played 12 draws, and suffered 6 defeats.
