Well, since you mentioned him…<\/p>\n

Filipe Luis is the current favourite to be the next man in the hot seat after Chelsea sacked Liam Rosenior – according to the bookmakers, that is.<\/p>\n

Luis joined Atletico Madrid as a player in 2012 and won four trophies before spending a year at Chelsea in 2014, winning the Premier League under Jose Mourinho before returning to the Spanish side.<\/p>\n

He then joined Brazilian giants Flamengo as a free agent in 2019 – where he spent four-and-a-half years before retiring from professional football in 2023.<\/p>\n

As a manager, the 40-year-old returned to his former club Flamengo – serving as the head coach of the first team from September 2024 to March 2026.<\/p>\n

Incredibly, he has averaged a trophy every 14 games, leading Flamengo to seven titles in his 100 matches in charge, guiding Flamengo to Copa Libertadores glory in 2025.<\/p>\n

In doing so, Luis became the ninth man to win the competition both as a player and as a coach, having claimed the trophy twice with Flamengo in 2019 and 2022.<\/p>\n

He also claimed Serie A, Copa do Brasil, Supercopa do Brasil, Campeonato Carioca, Fifa Challenger Cup and Fifa Derby of the Americas honours during his tenure, having previously led Flamengo’s Under-17 and Under-20 sides to league titles.<\/p>\n

In March of this year, Luis was dismissed of his role after the club had recorded an 8-0 win to reach the Campeonato Carioca final.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Who is Filipe Luis?published at 11:18 BST 11:18 BST Image source, Getty Images Well, since you mentioned him……\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":546234,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[49,50,51,47,52,48],"class_list":{"0":"post-546233","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-news","11":"tag-top-stories","12":"tag-topnews","13":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/546233","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=546233"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/546233\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/546234"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=546233"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=546233"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=546233"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
