Lúcio Flávio dos Santos (born 3 February 1979), known as Lúcio Flávio, is a Brazilian football coach and former player who played as an attacking midfielder.
Playing career
[edit]Born in Curitiba, Paraná, Lúcio Flávio was a Paraná Clube youth graduate. He made his first team debut during the 1997 season, and subsequently became an important unit as the side finished second in the 1999 Copa Sul-Minas.
On 26 July 1999, after renewing his contract, Lúcio Flávio moved on loan to Internacional until the end of the year.[1] After playing rarely, he returned to his parent club ahead of the 2000 season, and lifted the Copa João Havelange Group Yellow in the campaign.
Lúcio Flávio moved to São Paulo for the 2002 season,[2] but failed to impress and joined Coritiba on 17 July 2002.[3] In 2003, still owned by Paraná, he represented Atlético Mineiro.
In January 2004, Lúcio Flávio terminated his contract with Paraná due to unpaid wages, and agreed to a one-year deal with São Caetano.[4] In 2005, he spent six months abroad on loan at Saudi Arabia's Al-Ahli FC,[5] before joining Botafogo also in a temporary deal on 13 December of that year.[6]
After agreeing to a permanent deal with Bota for the 2007 campaign, Lúcio Flávio was a regular starter for the club before signing a two-year contract with Santos on 18 December 2008.[7] After failing to adapt, he returned to his previous club in May 2009,[8] being again a first-choice before joining Liga MX side Atlas on 7 December 2010.[9]
Transfer listed by the Mexican side in June 2011,[10] Lúcio Flávio returned to Brazil in the following month, after signing for Vitória.[11] He left the latter roughly one year later, and returned to his first club Paraná.[12]
Lúcio Flávio left Paraná in June 2015, after the expiry of his contract, and moved to another club he already represented, Coritiba.[13] In the following two seasons, he played for ABC[14] and Joinville,[15] retiring with the latter in 2017 at the age of 38.[16]
Coaching career
[edit]After retiring, Lúcio Flávio worked briefly as a sports commentator before returning to his first club Paraná in October 2018, as an assistant coach.[17] He was also an interim for one match during the 2020 Campeonato Paranaense, as manager Allan Aal was suspended.[18]
On 20 October 2020, Lúcio Flávio returned to Botafogo, as an assistant coach of Bruno Lazaroni.[19] The following 6 February, after the dismissal of Eduardo Barroca, he was named interim manager for the remainder of the 2020 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, with the club already relegated.[20]
In 2022, Lúcio Flávio became the head coach of the under-23 team, being an interim in the main squad after the departure of Enderson Moreira. In the 2023 Série A, he was again named interim head coach, after the dismissal of Bruno Lage;[21] former player Joel Carli also served as his assistant.[22]
On 14 November 2023, after only two wins in eight matches while in charge of Bota, Lúcio Flávio was removed from the interim role and dismissed from his assistant role.[23] On 9 February 2024, he was named head coach of Aparecidense,[24] but was sacked on 7 July.[25]
