Selecao coach Dorival Jr is now under huge pressure to maintain his job and Ze Roberto, speaking with ESPN, was asked if Guardiola was a realistic option.
"I think so," he replied. "But if today it were to be a foreigner, I would choose Abel Ferreira.
"Abel Ferreira is a coach (of Palmeiras) who has been in Brazil for a few years, a coach who knows how to deal with players. He would be an excellent name for the national team."
