Career

Micale also represented Londrina, Apucarana and Operário Ferroviário before retiring at the age of just 23. He started his managerial career in 1999 with his first club Portuguesa, taking charge of the club's youth setup.

Micale subsequently spent the vast majority of his career in charge of youth sides, notably Figueirense and Atlético Mineiro. On 31 December 2010, he was appointed manager of Grêmio Prudente,[2] but his reign only lasted 21 days.[3] He subsequently returned to Atlético and its youth team.

On 9 May 2015, Micale was named manager of Brazil under-20s, replacing Alexandre Gallo.[4] He achieved a second place in the 2015 FIFA U-20 World Cup, and also was the manager of the under-23s during the 2015 Pan American Games and the 2016 Summer Olympics, winning the latter for the first time in the country's history.[5]

On 20 February 2017, Micale was dismissed by CBF after failing to qualify the under-20s for the year's FIFA U-20 World Cup.[6] On 21 July he returned to Atlético, now appointed manager of the first team.

Micale was fired on 24 September 2017, after a 3–1 home defeat against Vitória. The following February, he replaced Wagner Lopes at the helm of Paraná.

In February 2021, he became the manager of Saudi club Al Hilal.[7] He later became the head coach of Emirati club Al Dhafra between October 2021 and March 2022.[8][9] In August 2022, he was appointed as head coach of Egypt U23 national team.[10] In October 2024, he became the head coach of Egypt U20 national team, a position he held until 31 December of the same year.[11]
