Enrique and the Brazil coach? What did he win? He lost everything, the legendary Scolari doesn’t understand
Brazil lost their coach Tite after the World Cup in Qatar, who quit after being knocked out in the quarter-finals. One of the possible names for the vacant position is Luis Enrique, which Felipe Scolari does not like at all.

After the World Cup in Qatar, we saw a huge exodus of coaches. For example, Brazil, Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands and Belgium have lost their coaches from the big teams.
And while Portugal and Spain have already found their replacements, Brazil is still looking. The most historically successful national team with 5 world championship titles wants to choose a new coach carefully.
Zinedine Zidane, Marcelo Gallardo, Thomas Tuchel, Mauricio Pochettino, Rafa Benítez or Carlo Ancelotti are some of the names that have been linked to the Brazilian national team in recent weeks.
Another name that has appeared on the list of favourites is Luis Enrique. The former Barcelona coach was fired from the Spanish national team after the World Cup, with which he did not make any great success.
His appointment would not please Luiz Felipe Scolari, who led Brazil to the World Cup title in 2002. “What did he win? He must have some results. He is a good coach, but he has lost everything,” Scolari told Brazilian media.
“What does it mean that he is good? Mourinho has won everything. I think it would be easier to get a South American not a European,” Scolari added.
Enrique, however, is no pushover, as Scolari seems to think. He lifted nine titles at Barcelona between 2014 and 2017, plus he signed his second treble in Culés history. He is also the last coach to lead Barcelona to a Champions League trophy.
