Eduardo de Souza Ney Barroca (born 22 April 1982) is a Brazilian professional football coach, currently the head coach of Mirassol.

Career

Born in Rio de Janeiro, Barroca started his career at Flamengo in 2000, working as a fitness coach of the under-13 squad. In 2003 he moved to Madureira, being appointed assistant coach.

Barroca's first coaching experience occurred with Sendas in 2007, as he was in charge of the under-17s; the following year, he was named first team coach.[1] In 2009, he joined Pão de Açúcar EC as an assistant.

In January 2011, after a short stint as Corinthians' under-17 head coach, Barroca joined Bahia, working as Rogério Lourenço's assistant.[2] On 9 February 2011, he was the club's interim coach during a 2–0 Campeonato Baiano defeat of Camaçari, as Lourenço was sacked.[3]

Barroca acted as an interim for Bahia in a further eight occasions, being also the youngest head coach to win a Série A match after defeating Flamengo on 4 September 2011, aged only 29.[3] On 18 May 2013, he left the club,[4] and subsequently returned to Sendas (now named Audax Rio) to work as an assistant coach of the under-20s.[1] The following January, he joined Botafogo as a permanent assistant coach of the first team.[5]

On 2 June 2014, Barroca signed for Fluminense to work as a coordinator.[6] The following 5 January, he was named Doriva's assistant at Vasco da Gama.[7]

On 1 March 2016, Barroca returned to Botafogo, being named head coach of the under-20 squad.[8] On 29 May 2018, he moved back to Corinthians, also as an under-20 coach.[9]

On 14 April 2019, Barroca was announced as head coach of Botafogo, replacing fired Zé Ricardo.[10] On 6 October, however, he was himself sacked after a poor run of results, and took over Atlético Goianiense eight days later.[11]

In December 2019, after taking Atlético to the top tier, Barroca left the club, and was appointed head coach of another newly promoted side, Coritiba, on 20 December.[12] He was sacked the following 20 August, as the club was ranked last in the league.[13]

Barroca took over Vitória in the second division on 7 October 2020.[14] He left the club on 27 November to return to his former side Botafogo, in the place of Ramón Díaz,[15] but was himself dismissed the following 6 February, after the club's relegation.[16]

On 27 May 2021, Barroca returned to Atlético Goianiense, in the place of Jorginho.[17] He left on a mutual agreement on 27 September, after only one win in the last ten matches.[18]

On 13 February 2022, Barroca was named head coach of Avaí, also in the top tier.[19] On 12 September, with the club in the relegation zone, he was sacked,[20] and returned to Bahia in the second division on 2 October.[21]

On 6 November 2022, after achieving promotion to the top tier, Barroca left Bahia.[22] The following 24 April, he replaced Gustavo Morínigo at the helm of Ceará,[23] but was himself dismissed on 28 June.[24]

On 3 July 2023, Barroca returned to Avaí, also replacing Morínigo.[25] He was dismissed on 26 April of the following year, after a poor start in the 2024 Série B.[26]

On 17 December 2024, Barroca was appointed head coach of first division newcomers Mirassol.[27]
