The most successful personality in World Cup history, the legendary Mário Zagallo, has announced his retirement at 76.
"I will not coach again at club or international level. Sincerely, I have not been watching soccer much lately," said the former great player, head coach and assistant coach of the Brazilian soccer team.
His last job was technical coordinator of Brazil's World Cup team in Germany.
"If they had asked me to continue, I probably would have kept on working," said "Lobo" (Wolf) Zagallo.
The revered veteran won two world titles as a player together with Pelé, Vavá and Garrincha (1958 and 1962), one as the coach (1970) and one as assistant coach (1994).
"It will be hard for anybody to emulate these achievements. I was lucky to have become manager soon after retiring as a player," concluded the popular Brazilian.
