Corinthians boss Tite was named as the new coach of Brazil on Wednesday, succeeding Dunga who was sacked after the team’s humiliating exit from the Copa America, the president of his club revealed.

“Tite no longer works at Corinthians. He accepted the invitation from the (Brazilian Football Confederation),” said the Sao Paulo club’s president, Roberto de Andrade.
Tite, 55, led Corinthians to a double of the regional Copa Libertadores and Club World Cup in 2012.
He takes over from former Brazil captain Dunga, who failed to turn the team around sufficiently after their embarrassing 7-1 World Cup semi-final thrashing by Germany on home soil in 2014.
