Ricardo Kaká Ready to Join Brazil’s Coaching Staff

According to Cazé TV, Ricardo Kaká has expressed his readiness to join the Brazil national football team coaching staff — soon to be led by Carlo Ancelotti.

The former midfielder, who earned 92 caps for Brazil, has been preparing for a coaching career since retiring in 2017. He completed a sports management course at Harvard and obtained his coaching license from the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF).

“If the team believes I can help, I think I’m ready. I’ve been preparing myself,” said Kaká.

Ancelotti will become the first foreign coach of Brazil once he concludes his duties with Real Madrid. His debut match will be against Ecuador in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.

Brazil currently sits fourth in the CONMEBOL standings, with the top six teams earning automatic qualification for the World Cup, set to begin in 14 months.
