It’s not today that Tite’s son attracts attention. Matheus Bachi is responsible for working on Flamengo’s defense and became recognized as the architect of a defense system considered almost perfect. The team entered the field 11 consecutive games without conceding a goal. But the assistant was an issue on other occasions, not just because of his work. Matheus, 34 years old, is successful on social media due to his beauty, but his name has also been involved in some controversies.

Tite’s eldest son was considered a heartthrob when he played alongside his father in the Brazil team in the Qatar Cup in 2022. At the time, a video went viral in which the coach gives Matheus a loving kiss after the team’s victory. With more than 240 thousand followers on Instagram, Fla’s defense coach is also considered a digital influencer. There, he shows his routine, including with his family. Married to influencer Fernanda Silva Bachi, the couple has two children: Lucca and Leonardo.
However, Matheus has also found himself at the center of some controversies. Amid the repercussions of the homophobic post made by former volleyball player Maurício Souza in 2021, Tite’s son left a like, expressing himself positively in view of the criticism that the center made regarding the fact that a new comic book portrays the son of Superman as bisexual.
At the time, the CBF stated that it “became aware of the facts and spoke directly with the aforementioned employee, who acknowledged his error in ‘liking’ the post, as he does not share such an opinion.” Matheus had also already been enjoying a series of posts on Instagram with content critical of the feminist and LGBTQIAP+ movements, as well as criticizing the professional press.
