Brazilian football federation has appointed Carlos Dunga as the head coach of Brazilian national Football team.
Official site of the Brazilian football federation has confirmed the appointment.
Dunga is taking over the duty of five time world champion side after their previous coach Luiz Felipe Scolari left the job following a dismal performance of the side in the world cup, that was held in their own soil on last month.
The 50-year-old returns for his second stint with the Selecao after he was fired following a disappointing 2010 World Cup.
"Brazil is not the best in the world anymore, as it used to be. But with hard work from now on, we can reach our goal once again," Dunga said at his unveiling.
He guided the Selecao to the 2007 Copa America and the 2009 Confederations Cup, but was criticised for dropping stars like Ronaldo and Ronaldinho during his spell.
Dunga coached Brazil between 2006 and 2010, during which he has won 42 and just lost six out of his 60 games.
The 1994 World Cup-winning captain was fired in 2010 after suffering a 2-1 World Cup quarter-final defeat to the Netherlands in South Africa.
His first mandate is to win the 2015 Copa America and he will announce his first Brazil squad in late August ahead of upcoming friendlies against Colombia and Ecuador.
