Juliano Belletti earns UEFA PRO license, set to guide Barcelona Atlètic

Juliano Belletti, the former Brazil international and 2002 World Cup champion, has completed the UEFA PRO coaching course, the highest licence for football managers. The qualification permits him to coach clubs above the second division.

Having led Barcelona Atlètic to a sixth‑place finish in the Segunda Federación and previously won the UEFA Youth League with the club’s Juvenil A side, Belletti is expected to return for his second season with the B‑team. He will aim to secure promotion, working alongside first‑team manager Hansi Flick and continuing his role in talent development.

Belletti earned the licence after months of study, including regular trips to Madrid for classes, and now holds the UEFA PRO diploma that opens opportunities at higher‑level clubs.
