Tiago Retzlaff Nunes (born 15 February 1980) is a Brazilian football coach. He is the current manager of Chilean club Universidad Católica.

Career[edit]

Early career[edit]

Born in Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul, Nunes was a youth player at hometown side Riograndense; initially a midfielder, he switched to central defender before ending his playing career due to a knee injury.[1] He then began his career as a fitness coach in the early 2003,[2] and worked at hometown side Inter de Santa Maria, Clube Atlético Camponovense, São Luiz-RS (two spells), Santo Ângelo, Pelotas, Bacabal, Luverdense (two spells) and Novo Horizonte.[3]

Nunes' first managerial experience came in 2010, with Rio Branco-AC, where he won the year's Campeonato Acreano. In June, he became the assistant of Tarcísio Pugliese in the Série C.[4]

On 7 November 2010, Nunes was appointed Luverdense manager in the place of departing Lisca,[5] but was sacked after only three matches.[6] He was subsequently in charge of Sapucaiense,[7] Riograndense,[8] Bagé[9] and União Frederiquense[10] before being named Grêmio's under-15 manager in 2013.

After working for Juventude,[11] Brasília[12] and Ferroviária's under-20 sides, Nunes was announced as São Paulo-RS manager on 3 May 2016.[13] On 17 October, he was named at the helm of Veranópolis for the following campaign.[14]

Atlético Paranaense[edit]

On 21 April 2017, Nunes joined Atlético Paranaense as manager of the under-19 squad.[15] The following 4 January he was appointed manager of the under-23s,[16] and won the year's Campeonato Paranaense. On 27 June 2018, he was named first-team interim manager in the place of Fernando Diniz.[17]

Still an interim, Nunes led the club to an impressive run in the league, finishing seventh (two points shy of a Copa Libertadores qualification spot) and winning the 2018 Copa Sudamericana. On 11 January 2019, he signed a new one-year contract with the club, being definitely appointed as manager.[18]

Corinthians[edit]

On 5 November 2019, Nunes was dismissed after accepting an offer from Corinthians.[19] He was sacked on 11 September 2020 due to poor form and bad results.[20]

Grêmio[edit]

On 21 April 2021, Nunes returned to Grêmio, being appointed first team manager in the place of longtime incumbent Renato Gaúcho.[21] He was dismissed on 4 July, after seven winless league matches.

Ceará[edit]

Nunes took over fellow Brazilian top tier side Ceará on 30 August 2021.[22] On 25 March 2022, after two eliminations in the Cearense and the Copa do Nordeste, he was sacked.[23]

Sporting Cristal[edit]

On 17 November 2022, Nunes was named manager of Peruvian club Sporting Cristal for the upcoming season.[24] On 11 November 2023, after missing out a place in the finals, he left amidst rumours to take over Botafogo.[25]

Botafogo[edit]

On 16 November 2023, Nunes was named head coach of Botafogo on a contract until 2025.[26] He was sacked the following 22 February, after a 1–1 draw against Bolivian club Aurora.[27]
