Brazil confirm Corinthians boss Tite will take over after Copa America shambles
Dunga was given the axe as the Samba stars continued their fall from grace after being knocked out in the group stages
BRAZIL have announced that Tite is now their new boss.
And their early exit was the last straw for the Brazilian FA and they are now putting their faith in the Corinthians boss.
Corinthians president Roberto de Andrade said: “Tite no longer works at Corinthians. He accepted the CBF's invitation."
Dunga, 52, had previously been in charge from 2006 to 2010, winning the Copa America in 2007.
Brazil have also made an indifferent start to their 2018 World Cup qualifying campaign as they sit seventh.
But Tite is a popular choice to get the Samba stars back on track.
Tite, 55, led Corinthians to the Brazilian Serie A title in 2011 and 2015, as well as the Copa Libertadores and World Club Cup in 2012.
And one of his first tournaments will be managing Brazil's Under-23 side in the Rio Olympics.
Neymar chose to represent his country at the Games and not the Copa America which has angered some fans.
The Barcelona star even had to apologise over a foul-mouthed rant after some supporters blamed him for Brazil's failure.
