(Reuters) – Former Argentina head coach Jorge Sampaoli has been named the new manager of Flamengo, the Brazilian club announced on Friday, nearly a month after he was sacked by Sevilla.<\/p>\n

Flamengo, the Copa Libertadores defending champions, said Sampaoli has signed a deal until December 2024. <\/p>\n

At Flamengo, Sampaoli will replace Vitor Pereira, who was let go earlier this week.<\/p>\n
