TASHKENT: Former Brazil, Portugal and Chelsea manager Luiz Felipe Scolari has been named coach of Bunyodkor, the Uzbek champions said on Tuesday.
The 60-year-old former World Cup-winning coach, who was sacked by the west London Premier League club in February, has agreed an 18-month contract with the Uzbek side.
"Uzbek football is on an upswing right now while Bunyodkor is a very dynamic club with great potential," Scolari was quoted as saying on the club's website.
