Career as a coach

Turra's first club as a coach was Novo Hamburgo (2009). His second job was Esportivo (2010) also in his state of birth, Rio Grande do Sul. Paulo Turra started his career in other states when accepted to train Brusque of Santa Catarina (2011).

His first team in state of Paraná was Cianorte (2012).[1] The club finished the Paranaense Championship in 4th place. The result gave to the club a spot in Brazil Cup 2013. At Operário (2013), Turra finished the Paranaense Championship at the same 4th place.[2]

Paulo Turra was near to a work opportunity in Daegu FC of South Korea (2014), but directive changes didn't allow it.[3] At February 14, he replaced Emerson Nunes at Avaí Futebol Clube.[4]

Career as a player

Paulo Turra started playing football in SER Caxias. By loan, he played at Botafogo where he won the Carioca Championship (1997). Back to SER Caxias, he helped his first club to win its first Gaúcho Championship (2000). His coach at that year was Tite.

Thanks to Luis Felipe Scolari, Palmeiras's coach in 2000, Turra went to the green club at that year. In one year, the defender was Champions Cup and Mercosul Cup champion. Turra also got Brasileirão 2000 quarter finals and Libertadores 2001 semifinal.

In 2001, Turra went to Portuguese football where he played four seasons: three at Boavista and one at Vitória de Guimarães. At Boavista, he got runner-up of Portuguese Liga once and played against young Cristiano Ronaldo, Sporting's player at that time. He played for Boavista in a 2002–03 UEFA Cup semi-final against Celtic.[5]

gollark: > That sounds like GPS, so he was way ahead of his time...That does not sound remotely related to how GPS actually works.
gollark: That's effectively 2nd gen too, but yes, fine, also not that.
gollark: Also, if your RAM runs at 1.488Hz you may have issues.
gollark: It runs headless though.
