Danilo Gabriel de Andrade (born 11 June 1979), simply known as Danilo, is a Brazilian professional football coach and former player who played as an attacking midfielder. He is the current head coach of Corinthians' under-20 squad.

Danilo made over 450 appearances in a 20-year playing career, during which he was mainly associated with São Paulo and Corinthians. He twice won the Copa Libertadores and the FIFA Club World Cup, as is a four-time Brazilian league champion.

Danilo is considered by pundits to be the greatest player who was never called up to the Brazil national team.[2][3] He was known for his technique, vision and goalscoring abilities, which earned him the nickname Zidanilo, in homage to Zinedine Zidane.[4]

Coaching career

[edit]

In January 2021, Danilo was appointed as Corinthians' new U23 coach.[5] He took over the under-20 side on 31 January of the following year, replacing sacked Diogo Siston.[6]

On 28 April 2023, Danilo was named interim head coach of the first team, after Cuca resigned.[7]
