See how many managers have spent over 1️⃣ year in charge of a Série A club | OneFootball

Completing a year at the helm of a top-tier Brazilian club is no easy task.

The number of coaches with at least two full seasons at the same club, for example, is low.

One of them is Gilmar dal Pozzo - featured in the highlight photo.

And there is only one exception when it comes to longevity.

Exactly 30% of the teams in the 2026 Brasileirão hired coaches for the current season. Who have not yet completed 100 days in the job. 

The majority (45%) of coaches arrived during the last season.
