Alongside Ancelotti, managers hit out at foreign coaches in Brazil 🎥 | OneFootball

Coaches Emerson Leão and Oswaldo de Oliveira caused awkward moments during an event with Carlo Ancelotti in the CBF auditorium this Tuesday (4).

During the 2nd Brazilian Football Coaches Forum, they were called to the stage and, alongside the Italian, criticized the presence of foreign coaches in the country.

Leão acknowledged, however, that this trend also happens due to the decline in the quality of Brazilian professionals.

"I’ve always said that I don’t like foreign coaches in my country," he declared.

"But I have to be smart enough to say that there is someone to blame for all this. Us. We, the coaches, are to blame for the invasion of other coaches who have nothing to do with this," he admitted, following up.

Oswaldo de Oliveira even said that he did not want to see a foreign coach leading the National Team.

"I didn’t want a foreign coach, but there was no way around it; if it had to be, let it be this gentleman," he stated.

"After he leaves, as world champion, then let a Brazilian come," he added.
