Only 5️⃣ managers have lasted over a year in Brasileirão Série A

The hiring of Eduardo Baptista is, so far, the latest development in the coaching carousel among Brasileirão Série A clubs.

Until then Criciúma’s coach in Série B, he replaces PauloPezzolano, who was one of the eight coaches in charge of a top-flight team since the start of this season.

Meanwhile, the list of professionals with at least one year at the same club has grown to five names since last Thursday (24), when Jair Ventura “celebrated an anniversary” at Vitória.

The one leading that list is Abel Ferreira, the record-holder with Palmeiras, the club where he has worked since October 30, 2020.

Rogério Ceni also stands out with more than three years at Bahia. Another stability that is more than rare in Brazilian football.

The others with more than 12 months at the same club are Rafael Guanaes and Odair Hellmann.

The other coach who has been in charge of the same team since last year is Vagner Mancini, who was hired to save Red Bull Bragantino from relegation.

Fernando Seabra was officially announced by Coritiba back in 2025, but after the end of Série B. His debut came in this year’s Paranaense.
