Dorival Silvestre Júnior (born 25 April 1962) is a Brazilian former football manager and former player who played as a defensive midfielder.

Playing career[]

Known only as Júnior during his playing days, he was born in Araraquara, São Paulo, and made his debuts as a senior with hometown's Ferroviária in 1982. Two years later, after a brief stint at Marília, he moved to Guarani.

In 1985, Júnior began playing in the state of Santa Catarina, first for Avaí and later for Joinville. In 1988, he went back to his native state, representing São José, but during the same year he moved to Coritiba.

In 1989 Júnior joined Palmeiras, remaining with the club until 1992. In the following year he was sold to Grêmio, and subsequently joined Juventude in 1994.

Júnior had subsequent spells at Araçatuba, Matonense and Botafogo-SP, retiring with the latter in 1999, aged 37.[1]

Managerial career[]

Júnior started his managerial career in 2002 with his first club Ferroviária,[2] after being an assistant coach at Figueirense.[3] He left the club in May of that year to return to Figueirense, as a director of football,[3] but was named manager of Figueira in September 2003[4] and won the Campeonato Catarinense in the following year. In 2005, he was appointed Fortaleza manager, but was dismissed on 30 March.

In the same year, Júnior managed Criciúma and Juventude.[5] In 2006, he won the Campeonato Pernambucano with Sport Recife[6] and also managed Avaí in the same year[7] before leaving the club in October to take over São Caetano.[8]

On 8 May 2007, after impressing with the Azulão during that year's Campeonato Paulista, Júnior was named Cruzeiro manager.[9] On 3 December, despite finishing fifth, he was fired[10] and subsequently joined Coritiba.[11] After not renewing contract with the latter, he was appointed at the helm of Vasco da Gama,[12] and was promoted from 2009 Série B.

On 5 December 2009, Júnior was named manager of Santos.[13] After notably winning the 2010 Campeonato Paulista with an extremely offensive football, with Neymar, Paulo Henrique Ganso and Robinho as its key units, he was dismissed on 21 September, after an altercation with Neymar.[14]

Júnior subsequently managed Atlético Mineiro,[15] Internacional, Flamengo,[16] Vasco da Gama,[17] Fluminense[18] and Palmeiras,[19] without the same success. On 9 July 2015 he returned to Santos, replacing Marcelo Fernandes.[20]

Júnior finished second in both 2015 Copa do Brasil and 2016 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, aside from winning the 2016 Campeonato Paulista. On 4 June 2017, after a 1–0 away defeat to rivals Corinthians and with the club in a poor form overall (only three points out of twelve), he was sacked.[21]

On 5 July 2017, Júnior took over São Paulo, signing a contract until the end of 2018.[22] He was sacked the following 9 March.[23]

Júnior returned to Flamengo on 28 September 2018,[24] being in charge until the end of the season. On 27 December of the following year, he was appointed manager of fellow top tier side Athletico Paranaense.[25]

On 28 August 2020, Júnior was dismissed by Athletico after the club suffered four consecutive defeats,[26] despite him being sidelined in three of those defeats after testing positive for COVID-19.[27]

Personal life[]

Júnior is the nephew of the former Brazilian player Dudu.[28] His son, Lucas Silvestre, is also his assistant since 2010.

In September 2019, Júnior was diagnosed with prostate cancer,[29] which he removed in the following month.[30]
