Arthur Elias (42) has been appointed as the new coach of the Brazil women's soccer team, the country's FA (CBF) said after Pia Sundhage (63) stepped down from her role following an early exit at the World Cup.
Elias joins from Brazilian women's club Corinthians.
"I'm sure we can change the reality of women's football in Brazil in a short space of time," Elias said in a statement on Friday.
"My mission is to bring results in the short term, at the (2024) Olympic Games. The Brazilian team needs to become world leaders again, that's our goal," he added.
Brazil suffered their earliest World Cup exit since 1995 in Australia and New Zealand, where they failed to get past the group stage.
Swede Sundhage had one year left on her contract and was due to coach the team at the Paris Olympics.
