Zagalu is the only one who has won the prestigious trophy four times.
He played a big role in almost every final tournament of the World Cup, starting from the 1958 championship, in which Zagalu became the champion with the Brazilian national team, and ending with the 2014 tournament, which took place in Brazil.
Tite, the former head coach of the Brazilian national team, also consulted with Zagal before the 2018 and 2022 World Cup finals.
As a footballer, Zagalu won the World Cup trophy in 1958 in Sweden and in 1962 in Chile.
Zagalu ended his football career in 1965 and five years later won the World Cup also as a coach, leading a team that included his former teammate Pele. Zagal also led Brazil in the 1974 finals, without Pele at that time.
As an assistant, he won the trophy in 1994, when the national team was led by Carlos Alberto Perreira.
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva declared three days of national mourning in the country on Saturday.
