Osvaldo Lessa Filho (born 23 September 1966 in Rio de Janeiro) is a Brazilian football manager.

Temporarily while in charge of Persipura, he went back to his native Brazil for a coaching course.[1]

Coaching career[]

Persipura Jayapura[]

He was given the Persipura Jayapura job in 2015 and replaced Jacksen F. Tiago as manager.[2] He won the 2015 Indonesia Super League and the 2015 AFC Cup in order to stay as manager.[3] Instead, he steered them to a second-place finish in the league and a round-of-16 exit in the AFC Cup. By January 2016, they had requested that he leave Persipura[4] and in March the Brazilian felt some trepidation over a possible dismissal after tying with Arema Cronus and finishing bottom in Group B of the .[5] On top of that, former footballer advised the board to entrust the management to , and instead as well.[6] Finally, the tactician was relieved of his duties in the beginning of April 2016.[7]

Madura United and Sriwijaya[]

Soon after, he joined Madura United, where he served as the physiotherapist and assistant manager.[8][9] Eventually, he left them too in 2017.[10]

On April 2017, the Rio de Janeiro native was handed the Sriwijaya F.C. coaching job as the club had shown interest in appointing him by March.[11] He usually uses the 4-3-3 formation in games.[12]

Recording three straight losses in a row in 2017, Lessa was chastised by the Sriwijaya board but was given an opportunity to redeem himself in the fifth round against Mitra Kukar[13][14] which he won 3-1. Supposing they lost, the former physiotherapist could conceivably have been fired by the club's management prematurely.[14]

On June 17 2017, Lessa was ousted from his job by the club and replaced him as caretaker coach.[15]
