Paulo Roberto Falcão

Brazilian association football player and manager

Paulo Roberto Falcão made a career in sport at a time when the terms of that career were still being set.

The record lists Paulo Roberto Falcão as Brazilian association football player and manager.

Paulo Roberto Falcão was born at Abelardo Luz in 1953. His recorded nationality is Brazil.

The twentieth century made work collective, expensive and political, with consequences that reached well beyond the people doing it.

The record gives his occupations as association football player, journalist and association football coach.

Athletic careers are short and pitilessly measured, which is what makes the great ones legible.

Working from Brazil shaped what was possible - the audiences within reach, the institutions that would have him, the language the work first appeared in.

Paulo Roberto Falcão is still at work, and the final assessment has not been made - the ordinary condition of a living career.
