Brazil eye Dunga as Scolari successor - reports


RIO DE JANEIRO (AFP): Brazil could appoint former coach Dunga to replace Luiz Felipe Scolari as national team boss, media reports indicated Saturday, despite ex-Corinthians coach Tite being considered the long-time favourite.

The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) earlier confirmed it will unveil its choice of Scolari's successor on Tuesday at 11am in western Rio and a clutch of Brazilian newspapers said Dunga, 50, would return for a second spell.
