Luiz Felipe Scolari , also known as Felipão (\"Big Phil\"), is a Brazilian football manager and former player who is the technical director of Campeonato Brasileiro Série A club Grêmio.

Considered to be one of the greatest and most successful managers of all time by several pundits, Scolari was a defender during his playing days, and notably represented Caxias before moving to a managerial role in 1982. After leading the Brazil national team to a FIFA World Cup win in 2002, he was manager of the Portugal national team from July 2003 to June 2008. He led Portugal to the final of UEFA Euro 2004, which they lost 0–1 to Greece, and to a fourth-place finish in the 2006 World Cup. Scolari also managed Portugal through UEFA Euro 2008, but resigned after a 2–3 loss to Germany in the quarter-finals.

After a return to club management at Chelsea in the Premier League and elsewhere, Scolari was hired again as manager of the Brazil national team in 2012. He led them to victory at the 2013 Confederations Cup, and to the semi-finals in the 2014 World Cup, both held at home. After the Brazil national team finished fourth in an upset 1–7 loss to Germany in the semi-final and lost 0–3 to the Netherlands in the third-place playoff, the Brazilian Football Confederation decided not to renew his contract. In 2015, he started work at Guangzhou Evergrande and went on to claim both the 2015 Chinese Super League and 2015 AFC Champions League in his first season with the club. He returned to Palmeiras in 2018, winning his second Brazilian league title that year.

Scolari is a dual citizen of Brazil and Italy, as he is descended from Italian immigrants.
