Felipe Luís continues his meteoric rise as a skilled coach
Felipe Luís had a successful start as coach of Flamengo, leading the first team to win four major titles within just a few months after taking charge in September 2024. His achievements included winning the 2024 Brazil Cup, followed by the Brazilian Super Cup and the Carioca Championship in early 2025, and most recently securing the Copa Libertadores title by defeating Palmeiras in the final.
His achievement in the Copa Libertadores is particularly remarkable, as he became the first person in the club's history to win the prestigious title both as a player (in 2019 and 2022) and as a coach. This triumph confirms his ability to successfully transition from the playing field to the technical management, highlighting his close relationship with the club and the winning culture he has instilled in it.
Tactically, Luis implemented an effective playing style that was well-received by fans, achieving a high win rate and quickly adapting to the demands of leading a team of Flamengo's stature. These early successes place the young Brazilian coach in the spotlight as one of the promising talents in football.
Interest is expected to grow in the former Atlético Madrid and Chelsea left-back from major European clubs looking to sign him, possibly in the upcoming season.
