Rio de Janeiro: Former Real Madrid and AC Milan midfielder Clarence Seedorf has agreed to terms to coach Brazilian Serie A club Atletico Paranaense, according to the local media.
The 41-year-old Dutchman has been in talks with Atletico officials for the past week and the club from the southern Brazilian city of Curitiba is “finalising details” before an official announcement, according to Globo Esporte.
It will be Seedorf’s third management job after spells in charge of Chinese Super League side Shenzhen and Italy’s AC Milan.
Atletico Paranaense finished 11th in this year’s Brazilian Serie A championship and have been without a coach since the resignation of Fabiano Soares on December 4.
