Gustavo José da Silva Leal (born 9 May 1986) is a Brazilian professional football manager currently in charge of Chilean club Everton de Viña del Mar.

Career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Born and raised in Petrópolis, Rio de Janeiro,[1] Leal graduated in Physical Education at the Catholic University of Petrópolis,[2] and began working with football in 2006, as a fitness coach.[3] He was in charge of Serrano[4] and Imperial's youth sides,[5] before becoming the head coach of the latter's first team on 6 April 2012; he previously acted as an interim for the side in one match, a 0–0 draw against Sampaio Corrêa-RJ.[6]

After avoiding relegation from the Campeonato Carioca Série B, Leal was kept as head coach for the 2013 season,[7] but the club withdrew from the competition in March. On 3 April 2013, he was appointed in charge of Mesquita,[8] but left in June after suffering relegation.

In October 2013, Leal took over Quissamã for the remaining matches of the year's Copa Rio.[9][10] He left the club the following 15 February, to join the youth categories of Fluminense.[11] He worked at the club's under-17 squad, before being named interim coach of affiliate side ŠTK Šamorín in Slovakia on 1 March 2018, after Mika Lönnström left.[12]

Confirmed as head coach of Šamorín in July 2018,[13] Leal was replaced by Sanjin Alagić in December, and returned to Fluminense as their under-20 coach.[14]

Assistant roles

[edit]

While he was coaching the Fluminense youth team, Leal was invited to join the Brazil national under-20 team, managed by André Jardine, as an assistant. He would subsequently go on to advise the under-23 team, for which he was part of the squad that participated in the 2020 Summer Olympics, winning the gold medal.[3][15]

In February 2022, after Jardine was appointed as manager of the Mexican team Atlético San Luis, Leal was selected as the club's technical assistant.[16]

Atlético San Luis

[edit]

In June 2023, after Jardine was hired as the head coach of Club América,[17] Leal was convinced by Atlético San Luis to remain at the team and become the head coach, being announced as their manager on 20 June.[16] He was sacked on 29 April 2024, after the end of the 2024 Clausura tournament.[18]

Everton Viña del Mar

[edit]

On 13 December 2024, Leal moved to Chile and was presented as manager of Everton de Viña del Mar.[19]
