Brazil full-back Dani Alves says that Pep Guardiola wanted to coach the national team last summer.

Bayern Munich manager Pep Guardiola wanted to coach Brazil at last summer's World Cup finals, according to defender Dani Alves.

The Barcelona full-back said that his former boss did not get the job because Brazilian football officials had reservations about appointing a foreign coach.

"Pep said he wanted to make Brazil a World Cup champion and had an entire strategy to make us a world champion," Alves told ESPN.

"They didn't want it, because they said that they didn't know if Brazil would accept a foreign coach."

Guardiola won 14 trophies in four seasons during his time at Barcelona and has since guided Bayern to back-to-back league titles.
