Another round on the carousel: Luís Castro was the latest "victim" of dismissals in Brazil

SAPO Notícias14 September 2026 at 22:46

The Portuguese Luís Castro was recently dismissed from the technical command of a Brazilian team, becoming the 16th victim of coach dismissals since the beginning of the year in the teams competing in the top tier of Brazilian football. The turnover on the benches continues to be a characteristic mark of the Brasileirão.

Since the start of the season, only eight of the 20 clubs that make up the Brazilian championship have managed to keep the same coach, highlighting the characteristic instability of the technical commands in the country's football. Most teams have already replaced their head coach at least once.

Luís Castro thus joins a long list of professionals who could not withstand the pressure of results, in an environment where patience with coaches is traditionally low. The coaching carousel in the Brasileirão continues to spin with no signs of slowing down.

Why this matters

This news is of interest to fans of Brazilian football and those following Luís Castro's career, showing the growing instability in coaching positions in the Brasileirão, where more than half of the clubs have already changed their coach this season.
