Santos promote Vinicius Marques to first team, change under-20 coach | OneFootball

On Tuesday, coach Vinicius Marques was promoted to join Santos’ coaching staff. He had been the club’s under-20 coach until then, but will now become part of Cuca’s staff.

Vinicius Marques arrived at Santos in 2025 as part of Cléber Xavier’s coaching staff. When Xavier left, Vinicius Marques was appointed to coach the club’s under-20 team.

The coach leaves Santos in excellent form, having won the 2025 Paulista Under-20 Championship title. This year, he managed his only Copa do Brasil campaign and, despite a strong performance, was eliminated in the quarterfinals by Cruzeiro.

As the under-20 competitions have not yet started, the Meninos da Vila are looking to maintain their good run this season. The team will now be coached by Elder Campos, who had been in charge of the under-17 side.
