Zago joined Corinthians in October 2011, after being named manager of the under-15 squad. He left in May 2013 to join Guarani, as an assistant of the main squad.

In July 2014, Zago was appointed manager of Ferroviária's under-20 team. He moved to Palmeiras in September of the following year, in the same category but as an assistant of João Burse,[1] and left in February 2016 to take over Ponte Preta, also in the under-20s.

On 27 February 2018, Zago was named manager of Atlético Mineiro's under-17 squad,[2] and was appointed in charge of the club's under-20s on 28 June of the following year.[3] During the 2020 season, he was in charge of the first team for three Série A matches as Jorge Sampaoli and his staff were on quarantine after a COVID-19 outbreak in the squad.[4]

Zago left Galo on 18 March 2021,[5] and was named manager of Série D side Joinville on 26 April.[6] He left the club on 25 October with only two losses,[7] and was named at the helm of Botafogo-SP on 19 November.[8]

On 23 May 2022, Zago was sacked by Botafogo, after three defeats his last four matches.[9] On 1 December, he was announced by Fortaleza as the head coach of their under-20 team,[10] before returning to first team duties the following 26 April, after being named at the helm of Portuguesa.[11]

On 19 September 2023, Zago was sacked by Lusa, after the club's elimination in the Copa Paulista.[12]
