Career

As a player he began his professional career in his hometown in 1982, playing for Ferroviária. Two years later he moved to Guarani, of Campinas. In 1985, he began playing in the state of Santa Catarina, first for Avaí and later on for Joinville. In 1988 he went back to the state of São Paulo, this time to play for São José, but during the same year he moved to Coritiba. In 1989 he went to Palmeiras, where he stayed until 1992. A year later in 1993 he was sold to Grêmio, and in the following year he continued to play in the state Rio Grande do Sul, but this time for Juventude, where he ended his career in 1995.[2]

Dorival Júnior started his managerial career in 2003 with Figueirense and won the Campeonato Catarinense in 2004. In 2005, he went to Fortaleza and won the 2005 Campeonato Cearense. He later went to Criciúma and Juventude, still in 2005. In 2006, he won the Campeonato Pernambucano with Sport Recife and also managed Avaí in the same year.

In 2007, Dorival Junior had a great campaign with São Caetano, and helped them to become runner-up in the 2007 edition of the Campeonato Paulista. In that campaign he eliminated big clubs such as: Corinthians and São Paulo. After winning against São Paulo in the semi-finals, São Caetano were runners-up in the Campeonato Paulista, losing in the finals to Santos. A day after the finals, Dorival Júnior left São Caetano and went to Cruzeiro.

After a promising campaign, in which Cruzeiro were second in the championship for most of the year, Cruzeiro slipped up in the last few rounds and barely qualified for the Copa Libertadores 2008, Dorival Júnior was fired. Although Cruzeiro managed to qualify for the Libertadores, Cruzeiro decided to fire Dorival Júnior for a manager more capable of leading the team to a good Libertadores campaign.
