TITE has left his role as Brazil manager following the quarter-final defeat to Croatia.
The five-time champions crashed out of the World Cup after losing 4-2 on penalties to Croatia following a 1-1 draw at the end of extra-time.
In his post-match press conference Tite revealed he would step down as boss – revealing he always intended to leave his post at the end of the tournament.
He said: “As I said, my cycle is over. I said it over a year and a half ago. I’m not a man of two words.”
Tite had promised to quit back in February, revealing he wanted one more shot at winning the World Cup.
He previously stated: “I’m going until the end of the World Cup.
“I have no reason to lie here. I don’t want to win any way. I’ve won everything in my career, the only thing missing is the World Cup.”
The 61-year-old led Brazil to the quarter-final at the 2018 World Cup where his side lost to Belgium.
And he also reached the Copa America final last year, suffering defeat to Argentina.
But Tite has now decided to step down following a six-year reign.
HOW TO GET FREE BETS ON THE WORLD CUP
And in doing so he became the sixth World Cup manager to leave his post after exiting the competition.
Mexico and manager Gerardo Martinez parted ways following their shock group stage exit, with Roberto Martinez suffering the same fat at Belgium.
Ghana gaffer Otto Addo also left his post, while Spain sacked Luis Enrique following their last-16 penalty shoot-out defeat to Morocco.
While South Korea manager Paulo Bento also planned to stand down at the end of the tournament and did so after being thrashed 4-1 by Brazil.
