Brazil Coach Tite to Step Down After 2022 World Cup

Brazil men's national team coach Tite announced Friday that he will step down after the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Tite was appointed to lead the Seleção in 2016 after Dunga was fired following Brazil's group stage exit at the Copa América Centenario.

The coach led the Brazilians to the quarterfinals of the 2018 World Cup, where they lost to Belgium, but won the Copa América in 2019. The South American title, which was won on home soil, was Brazil's first trophy since 2013—if one counts the Confederations Cup.

Tite has coached Brazil to 51 wins and only five losses (including the 2021 Copa América final defeat to Argentina) in 70 games in charge.
