The Swedish coach will not have survived Brazil’s premature elimination from the group stages of the last Women’s World Cup.

The news was announced on Wednesday evening by the Brazilian Football Federation (CBF).

«In the coming days, the CBF will announce a new technical commission, which will open a new cycle in view of the 2024 Paris Olympics and the 2027 Women’s World Cup.“, indicates the CBF in a press release.

Brazil, the reigning South American champion, was sadly eliminated from the group stage of the World Cup in New Zealand and Australia in early August. The Seleção finished in third place in their group behind France and Jamaica, their worst result in the competition since 1995.

Pia Sundhage, 63, was under contract until 2024 with the Auriverde selection.
